IRC Channel: #MNFurs (irc.furnet.org) For those of you who live around the Twin Cities metro area, there is a major furmeet that occurs every other weekend in Hopkins.
From about 5 pm onward, there is a gathering in the back party room of the Hopkins Perkins, where visitors can bring cards, games, tech toys, etc. and visit with each other. Food is not provided, and will be at your own expense if you decide to purchase meals at the restaurant.
There is also a smaller furmeet that breaks away to the Caribou Coffee across the street for drinks and free wifi. Most of the group there remains until about 9 pm, when the coffee shop closes, then congregates across the freeway at Knollwood Mall to eat at the Applebee's. Since Saturday nights are half-off appetizers there, a decent-sized meal or bite to eat is usually around $5.
Remember, these are public restaurants, so FURSUITS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED. This is a social gathering, and not necessarily the best place to show off your outfits.
Here's some useful info to sum it all up:
