To all those interested, I'd like to put the link up for Gateway Furmeet 2015, a local convention in its second year for the St. Louis area.
You may find the information and dates of the con here: http://gatewayfurmeet.org/

Last year on Saturday, we had around 200 people come in. The venue has changed for this year, and while I am not quite on track with the decision, I understand that it was due to monetary and availability situations. I do not expect myself to attend the whole thing: as with last year, I am planning to drop in on Saturday for several hours. That being said, if people wish to make plans to come up for the weekend, I would be happy to arrange some space in my house and would otherwise enjoy seeing you. :)
