RMFC
8 years ago
General
Well, I found out a few days ago that RMFC was cancelled indefinitely. This is pretty sad news to me, as it had become my other definite annual con besides FC, and was an opportunity to see my friends in that part of the country. It definitely had its problems, but some of the best times of my life were had at that con. Now there's another group trying to come up with a replacement Colorado con, but it'll be at least a year before anything comes of it. In addition to this, I might not be able to attend BLFC this year after all, but that's still up in the air. But it's looking like I might not make it to another con until next year's FC. I'm thinking about the possibility of Arizona Fur con, but it's very small and I'm not very fond of the state. I'll see if they have an art show and if the hotel is reasonable, but I'm thinking it's unlikely. Basically this year sucks so far :(

For sure! I've driven out there to visit before, the con was just such a great opportunity to have everyone together in one place. I'll probably be finding my way out there at some point before the end of the year.

Aw that really sucks!! Do you know why it was canceled?

Apparently there were a lot of factors involved, but from what I've heard the main ones were that the con chairman had been evading his taxes for years, and the other thing was that a local group of neo Nazi furs were threatening to bring guns. So yeah XD

That's so horrible. Guess it's time for a new con with new leadership. Hopefully there will actually be a new one...
