  • Code of Conduct

    Non Essere un Cretino ("NON ESS-ERE-AY OON CRAY-TI-NO"), or in English: "Don't Be a Dumb@ss"

    The Vespa Club of D.C. does not tolerate any kind of violence, reckless driving, driving under the influence, or weapons during the Raduno. You may be removed from the event if you violate this policy and will not receive a refund.

    This includes, but is not limited to, actual physical violence, threats of violence, fights or arguments between attendees, use of abusive language, any attempt at intimidating or instilling fear in others, menacing gestures, talking or any other hostile, aggressive, injurious or destructive action undertaken for the purpose of domination or intimidation, or bringing weapons of any type to the event.

    If you see a threatening or uncomfortable situation or feel threatened, do not try to handle the situation yourself. Instead, immediately contact one of the Raduno organizers or a Board member. Any incident will be assessed, and appropriate action will be taken. If the Club determines, after an appropriate good faith investigation, that someone has violated this policy, will take swift and appropriate corrective action, up to and including ejecting the violator from the event.
