I don't think I'll have just tested Friday night – I intend to test Friday AM before getting in a car to go the weekend if I attend (and I assume people flying in Friday will test before getting in a plane). I don't know how much marginal benefit there is
for the extra Saturday test regardless of when the test was taken Friday, but really I don't care either way about Saturday testing. Once we are testing 2 vs 3 doesn't matter much to me.
I don't think saying masks is encouraged will achieve much or any comment about vaccine status if you aren't requiring it anyway.

stupid since you just tested on Friday night" idea, so only testing two times, Friday and Sunday. Then I feel like the dance can buy a couple dozen which I have found at $3.50/test online so that we will have some for those who forget and or feel aggrieved about the whole idea, and it won't break either our bank or other people's banks. Here is some text that I'm thinking of including: ----------------- COVID POLICY We plan to use a modified Covid policy from the previous time: Attendees must do a rapid test on Friday prior to attending, and again on Sunday morning. We will have a few on hand. Obviously, attend only if the test result is negative, and if you are feeling well. ------------------ Last time we also said "Masks are encouraged, but not required. Vaccination is not required." I could maybe just leave that out, or I could include it.
