Further Confusion Picnic
Posted 13 years agoHello everybody!
Chairman of this crazy little adventure we've been calling Further Confusion 2013: The Furbidden Planet!, here. I'm writing this reminder to all of our fans about another crazy little adventure we do for our community every September, the Further Confusion Picnic! The crew of our fine ship have been working hard to nail together this well deserved shore leave for all of us, the passengers and crew of Further Confusion. Years past have been tremendously fun, this year promises to be more so!
Our venue for this event, Lake Chabot Regional Park, offers access to activities like fishing, boating, hiking, bicycling, and swimming as well as picnicking. There are plenty of things to do at the park other than chilling out with friends in a relaxed non-con environment.
We will be picnicking in the *Willow* picnic site on Saturday, September 8 at 12:00 Noon. You may arrive earlier for set-up, but please no earlier than 10AM. The park charges $5 per car for parking, so carpooling is highly encouraged! Directions to the main park entrance can be found here: http://goo.gl/maps/oml3v.
Some functional things to note -
- This is a dog friendly event.
- This is a fursuit friendly event.
- We've never lost a RedShirt in the field.
You are all invited to join us as we fire up the grill for the afternoon of fun and friends. Thank you for your time, hope to see you at Lake Chabot this coming Saturday!

Furbidden Planet Movie Poster and Story Contest
Posted 13 years agoWhen you think of retro-futurism, nothing comes to mind better than old cheesy movies and deep detailed writings. We have decided to make an open call to all the talented artists and writers in our community to submit your furry version of retro science fiction!
For those who draw:
Take an old retro science fiction movie poster, such as The Forbidden Planet, work your magic to make it as furry as you can, slap on the text "The Furbidden Planet" "FC 2013/Furcon2013/Further Confsuion2013", and submit it to the space cadets over at Marketing. We will take our favorites and print them up at movie poster size for display at Further Confusion 2013! All others will get placed on a dedicated webpage on our site for everyone to check out such as some of the items here on our FurAffinity page.
For those who write:
Write us a great piece of original furry retro-futuristic science-fiction. Try to keep it under 10 pages and acceptable for all ages. Submit your work to the space cadets over at Marketing. We will take our favorites and print them up and place them in the convention space for interested parties to read. If you want to design a cover, we can print that as well. All others will get placed on a dedicated webpage on our site for everyone to see!
All participants will get collectable FurCon swag, as well as proper accreditation for their hard work. Make your subject line "The Furbidden Planet" for an expedited process . Further questions should be submitted to marketing@furtherconfusion.org.
