2021 Convention
Registration Packet
June 15-17, 2021
JW Marriott Marco Island
Beach Resort
2021 Florida Cattlemen’s
Convention & Allied Trade Show
Potential Impacts due to
Marriott’s COVID-19
Guidelines
While FCA Staff and the volunteer leaders of FCA, FCF,
FCW & JFCA look forward to seeing you all at Marco Island for
the annual convention there are a few things we would like to
bring to your attention. As has been the case for over a year,
guidelines and procedures for gatherings continue to be
everchanging due to COVID-19. At the time this packet was
printed Marriott’s corporate leadership require that guests wear a
mask and practice social distancing when in the resort’s common
areas (hallways, lobbies, foyers etc). They also will only allow
us to seat 6 at a table for our 3 large plated meals, instead of the
normal 10 per table. This will potentially limit the amount of
meal tickets we will have available for the Youth Appreciation
Luncheon, Cattlemen’s Supper, and Cattlemen’s Banquet. Since
these tickets will likely sell out in this “first come, first serve”
scenario, we recommend that you get your registrations in
quickly, and that you purchase full registration packets if you
would like to attend these meal functions. We have been given
the greenlight to sell all 170 Tradeshow booth spaces, however
Tradeshow Attendance might be limited to a set number of
people at one time. As mentioned above these are the guidelines
set forth by Marriott Corporate at the time of this packet’s
printing. There is certainly the potential for these restrictions to
change by the week of Convention in June. We may be able to
expand to 10 people per table, and have unlimited access to the
tradeshow during tradeshow hours, however we can only present
the information we have currently. The resort has certainly been
more than willing to take all of your room reservations, and the
