jenesri here~!

I just got some information about the New Year's Eve Party; we have to know how many people are going to come! Yes, we need you guys to respond to this post.

Lee-Hi Lanes
Reservations 60$ Per Lane
Six people per lane
From: 9PM-2AM

We need to know if people are coming want to play. We will like to know. Seriously--you will have to pay for your share. Also make all the arrangements that you need to.

If a lot of people don't wish to do this, we can go to Turtles' aka  koorakaara new 'BIG' Apartment and hang out and do our RoaVaFurs stuff there. Please let me know if you want to do either.

OR you might have a better idea and we might do that. Make sure that it is fursuit friendly and accepted for people from 16 years of age to 61 years old.

We are currently a group on Facebook! If you are interested please let us know, we'd love to get you in.

We are also on pounced.org, ifpl, and youtube!

Seeking Help!

Currently, we are looking for people to take on the responsibilities of client side information; dealing with posting pictures, videos, comments and notes.

We would like to ask everyone to send some information so I can work on a newsletter for the RoaVaFurs, through our Google Mail account. You will get monthly updates for events, questionnaires and coupons. Yes, coupons; I've discussed with some restaurants and some areas to get some. We would appreciate if you would do so in getting this information. If you are concerned about getting spam, don't be. We only post a newsletter once a month and friendly reminders for those wishing to attend the next event.

We are getting closer at the end of the year and the beginning of a new year. We are currently looking for more members and willing members to take on tasks; administration, media casts (podcast/youtube videos), chair members: President, Vice President and others.

We are looking for people that are willing to take on more tasks for me; I do a lot for the group and it is very hard to balance a full time job, my hobby and this group. I would not want to push this group aside and the fandom.

Please step up to the tasks! I use up my free time checking information and updating all the time!

You thought "I wasn't going to miss out on the last day." I did say in November that was our last event. Some people did mention that they would like to have an event in Roanoke. I thought about it, and then sure. We are going to have this as an optional event, especially with Mid-terms, Family and Weather.
This event is one of those you can miss. We are going to skate and be there until we want to leave. We are always welcomed in fursuit, ears, tails and all. We will NOT be getting a room this time, due to last time for recent complications.

Required: (On attending) Money, a ride, socks and willing to have fun.
Optional: New, unused Toy. (Donations for Toys for Tots of the Roanoke Valley.)

Yard Sale/Lawn Convention
Date: March 12. 2011 Time: Early 6:30 AM
Location: Jen's House

There is a time that you would like to get rid of some stuff that you don't need anymore. We're looking into fixing that. We want to get rid of some stuff too.

Start collecting some stuff that you can part with and hope you can make a pretty penny off of it. We will be doing a yard sale in  jenesri front yard, and will be holding a donation for Roanoke SPCA Animal Shelter during that time. People can donate some of their money that they earn, you aren't required to.

The Lawn Convention will be going on in the backyard of  jenesri house, we will be cooking out and having outdoors fun. It is a small house, so please be mindful.

More information on this event in the future...

New Year's Eve Party: 9PM-2AM
Lee-Hi Lanes, Salem, VA

We are looking for people to help out with this event, I have been trying to get more information about this, but I have been at work until six O'clock. If you would like to take it into your own hands, do so. Let me know what you need.

1. We need two lanes, considering our numbers.
2. Out of town people need to make arrangements with other members for staying in Roanoke. ( I will be unable to house anyone, in the middle of a move.)
3. No Drinking/Drugs at this event. Smoking is allowed, but not near people that are very sensitive to smoke. (IE: my mother.)
4. You are a representative of our group, be respectful of your group and people around you.

We will be getting there late evening 31st, New Year's Eve, (I am working that day,) and staying up until one O'clock or later, New Year's Day, Saturday. We can make this a weekend event if you wish, consider people have lives and jobs.

Creating your own event!

If you were at our last meeting, I did sum it up with, "If you had the chance to create your own furmeet, what would you do?"

1. Location, Location, Location!
2. Time of Meeting: Start and End!
3. Money required!
4. Interesting Information!

Please consider the event times that we already have created for the year. We will NOT be planning during Fur Conventions that any RoaVaFurs might be attending in the next coming year!

We need an anthem and an official banner.

Lyrics too... Heh.

I know we have some artists in our group: both musician and artistic. I would love to create something like this for the youtube video and also our future events: Parade, Conventions and what not!

Anthem:  gravesidemanner [Awesome Song BTW]
Banner:  phoenixfire21 's friend.

If you are unable to do anything like that, you are creative in writing. Please if you remember any of our events, and would like to create a short story to post it on here. Reflection pieces are a great! Remember the first time you came to a RoaVaFurs event?


And if you don't have that, donations--would be greatly accepted, I counted over three hundred dollars($300) spent on this group since August, it doesn't run itself. If you would like to donate, please note  jenesri or this account.

DONATIONS ARE AWESOME!

Donations for equipment would be great. We need a mic--bad.
