An Important Message about RainFurrest 2016
9 years ago
Hello Fans!
As many of you know, RainFurrest has been in search of a new venue since October 2015. We have discussed and explored facilities in many wonderful areas, finding options with a number of excellent venues in Greater Seattle and western Washington state. Our hard-working hotel team has fought for every possible option that would suit what our fans want out of RainFurrest. Tonight, the last of those options has closed to us.
It is our sombre duty to inform you that our efforts to locate a viable convention and hotel space for 2016 have not been successful. We do not feel any additional options will present themselves in time to successfully plan and hold the event. As a result, the RainFurrest Anthropomorphics International (RAIn) board of directors have voted not to host RainFurrest 2016.
We appreciate your support through our very challenging transition, and we extend our sincere thanks to everyone, especially our staff volunteers, who devoted their time, effort, and thoughts to us. We will continue to work on future locations and dates and we will return when we know the situation is right for our fans.
We will be issuing further details regarding refunds and other remaining issues in the near future. Please wait for more details before contacting us about this. If you have any questions or comments about the decision, please email board@rainfurrest.org, or their new Twitter or Facebook Page profiles.

Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you all in the near future!

Thank you very much for keeping us up to date, the panel at Furlandia was very appreciated as well. :)
also, did you guys even look out of state like ID or OR?
just cause southeast WA doesn't have a huuuuge single city doesn't mean it doesn't have locations either. other posts on the internet made it sound like you basically only checked seattle and spokane..
