What to bring:
1. *Cash – Make sure to have at least $20 in cash for food/activities (if possible). The Palace Theater only accepts Cash!!!
2. Camera – Bring your still or video camera to preserve your memories.
3. **Transportation – Make sure you have a reliable vehicle available to take you to and pick you up from the event.
4. Furry Gear – Bring your fursuits, puppets, ears/tails, etc. (Keep it clean please! No fetish-gear or “bits”). These will be used at the Meet and Greet, and possibly the Dinner.
5. Art Gear – Have artwork to showoff? Bring your portfolio, laptop, iPod, or whatever you use to showcase your talent.
*Money Problems? We can help…
Here is some advice for those of you on a tight budget:
1. No purchase is required at the Panera Bread meet & greet, so if you can’t afford to eat there ($5-$10), eat lunch at home or somewhere cheaper just before the Meet.
2. The Palace Theater movie tickets are $3 per person. However, if you are just completely broke, we have some volunteers willing to pay your way.
3. Attendees will have the option of going out to dinner after the movie, and voting on the restaurant. However, please do not expect anyone else to pay for your food. If you cannot afford to eat out, don’t be embarrassed to call it a night. You are welcome to tag along to the restaurant and order water, but please do not order food you cannot pay for yourself (including tip if applicable). Thank You.
**Transportation:
4. You will be expected to find your own transportation to Panera Bread, and from
wherever you decide to finish the event. However, if you don’t have access to your own vehicle, we have up to 7 carpool seats available to shuttle from Panera Bread to the Palace Theater and the optional dinner afterward. The carpool will return to Panera at the end of the night if needed, but will not be used to “Taxi” people to their homes under any circumstances (though you have the option to be dropped off en route). Please Note you will need to sign a waver if you choose the carpool option, and must go where carpool goes (just like a city bus).
All furries, and furry-tolerant/supportive friends and family members are welcome. ^^
If you're interested in having some good clean fun with other local furries, please send me your RSVP for the weekend of January 17. RSVP is not required, but it make event planning easier if we have a general guesstimated attendance number. You will get a FREE commemorative group badge if you RSVP by Friday the 15th.
Here’s how to RSVP…

1. Your fursona’s name, first name, or nickname (At least 1 name required)
2. Your cell phone number (Optional - Used for quick contact in emergencies)
3. Some basic info about you (Optional - Fursona species, job, age, interests, etc.)
4. A photo of your fursona or self for your badge (optional)
