Maryland Mall Movie Meet!
13 years ago
General
I know I haven't been in the community that long, but I'd really like to host a meet-up before I leave in November. I have yet to host a furry meet, but I've hosted and co-hosted several in another fandom and been to plenty more (as well as running several photoshoots at conventions). So, here's a tentative plan.
WHO: I'll probably be hosting, with my mate as an assistant.
WHAT: Meet up to doof around the mall, go see Frankenweenie, and go to dinner at Johnny Rockets afterwards.
WHEN: Saturday, October 13th 1PM - 10ish PM
WHERE: Arundel Mills Mall in Hanover, Maryland.
I can't do the meet any later than that because I'll be working on stuff for a convention (AUSA, might even host a meet/photoshoot there if there isn't one already). I think Arundel Mills will be good because a) I've hosted meet-ups there before, and b) there's tons to do! Movies, rock climbing, an arcade, tons of stores, lots of places to eat, and just soooo much to do. We'll be starting at 1PM, go around the mall and do the attractions, and then see a movie in the early evening. Afterwards, we'll be going to eat at Johnny Rockets.
WHAT TO BRING:
Money - Please remember that we are seeing a movie and going to be dinner, so make sure to have enough to buy your ticket and food (if you're eating). Additional attractions will cost more, so bring extra to be safe. I cannot and will not buy anything for you, and I can't assure anyone else will. If you don't bring money for something, just assume you won't get to do it.
Food, drink, games, etc. - Feel free to bring a simple snack or drink if you'd like. We'll be at the mall for a while, so bringing something for you or the group to snack on is encouraged (mall food can be expensive after all). You can bring regular cards or other card games to play when we're waiting or resting.
OTHER RULES:
NO FURSUITS! The mall itself does NOT like fur suits. Tails, ears, and paws are fine, but please leave your heads at home (the fake ones, anyway)!
Don't be a dick. Pretty simple rule, but it has to be stated. Don't run around, yell, or do anything inappropriate. Be civil to everyone in and out of the group. Remember, in this situation, we are the face of the furry fandom to the public. Don't give them a bad impression. If you do something stupid, even after a warning, you will be ejected from the meet.
Don't disappear. If you're leaving the group (or the event entirely), please say something to either of the organizers so we don't think you've been left behind.
Finally, I'll be updating the event with new information as it becomes available, such as what time the movie will be (sometime in the early evening).
PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! I really want people to attend, and to weigh in even if they're not.
We will be seeing the 5:50 showing of Frankenweenie, not in 3D. You can buy your tickets online if youd like.
