NOVA Furs Update - 7/6/2016
9 years ago
Check HERE for the most up-to-date meetup info.
Hello everyone! Jet here to inform you all what we have been up to lately. I know it has been a while since we have come out with any large events, such as a bowling meet, but rest assured that we hope to put some pieces in place to have some fun in the future.
For starters, I would like to encourage everyone to welcome our three new moderators to the group: SirKain! Geenz! & Angrosh!
They will be helping both Rechner and myself with rebuilding the group and how we can get events up off the ground and running much more easily.
- Weekly Wing Night - Every Monday evening from ~6-8pm
Buffalo Wing Factory & Pub
13067 Lee Jackson Memorial Highway, Fairfax, VA
Meetup info: http://www.meetup.com/NOVAfurs/events/232369748/
(information will be copied for each week)
Come enjoy the many flavors offered while chatting with local furs! Non-suiting event but people have brought casual items (i.e. tails) and the business is fine with that. Please be mindful of other patrons in the restaurant.
Gathering at Sir Kain's III

We will also be having some events upcoming for FA:U! It's amazing to think that NOVA has two furry cons now: www.faunited.org
So far, after discussing with the events coordinator for the convention, we have two panels that have been approved.
For Friday, we will have our now-traditional Meet & Greet. The idea behind the panel is to introduce the group to the moderators so you can put names to faces (we had ~30-40 people show up at FTM) but also allow us to tell you what our goals for the group have been, some minor updates here and there, as well as answer any burning questions people have.
Sunday we (at least me) will be hosting a Town Hall event where it's slightly more serious where we can have discussions about the group including:
- Why certain events make the cut and which ones don't
- What is considered to go into an event
- What some aspirations for the group that have been discussed but not realized
And finally, there will be an announcement at the end of the Town Hall panel you won't want to miss. The times for the panels are still up in the air as the FAU staff is working hard to put all the pieces of the puzzle together. If you have any thoughts/ideas about events for the convention, please let us know.
One last thing I wanted to bring up was some notes about the Telegram chat room. Its rules have undergone some renovations, and it has gotten better since the last pinned message was posted, but the group is meant to foster friendships and let people be who they are. The moderators and I ask that you please respect our wishes in continuing to be an awesome group for both newcomers and veterans alike.

Thanks for the info :)
For future releases, if there is enough interest shown by people for a movie then it would be more viable for us to consider renting a theater. We are very happy that people enjoyed the Zootopia experience, a lot of work was put into it.
A four minute trailer featuring various anthro-animal characters was released yesterday:
