RMFC and Geo Need Your Help!
Posted 11 years agoAttention Furs: RMFC needs your help!
As many of you may know, the convention's mascot has been a Mountain Lion named Geo since it was founded in 2007. His likeness is featured on all of our conbooks and promotional materials each year.
With our expanding online presence and to give our mascot more of a personality as the face of RMFC, we would like to give Geo a last name. However, since Geo represents the convention as a whole, we thought it would be a good idea if everyone had a hand in deciding what that name should be!
Here's how we determine Geo's last name:
We would like to keep the name either an earthy or feline themed name, so any names submitted should fit within those guidelines
Please do not reply to this post with your suggestions. Instead, send them via e-mail to Spikester at socialmedia[at]rockymountainfurcon.org with the subject line "Geo Last Name Suggestions".
If you have more than one name to suggest, that is fine. Try to include them all in one message. Do not forget to include your fur name as well!
All submissions are due by September 26th.
A "short list" of possible names will be compiled and then presented to the convention directors for a vote. Top vote getter will be Geo's official last name!
Why are we doing this? Stay tuned....all answers will be revealed in due time.... ;)

Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2014 is over…
Posted 11 years ago… and it was a blast!
Hey everyone! It’s EagleTheCheetah, your new Director of Marketing! I just wanted to take some time to thank you all for making RMFC 2014 the successful, amazing convention that it was. While our hard-working staff build the foundation for fun every year, ultimately it is you, our attendees, who make it a blast. I wanted to share some numbers from 2014, as we really climbed some high peaks this year. Because of you, we grew by an unfathomable 35%—our largest increase since 2008. We had 303 fursuiters, compared to 200 last year. Through our charity auctions, casino night, and donations, we raised an incredible $5,000 for our charity, Freedom Service Dogs. Beyond that, your participation has solidified RMFC as one of the top 10 furry conventions in the world!
I would also like to thank our Guests of Honor, ShinigamiGirl and whiteyfawks for participating in the festivities. I bow to our tireless staff members and volunteers who give their all to make this event as enjoyable as it is; clearly, it paid off.
On a more personal note, I also wanted to thank everyone for the incredible welcome I received during closing ceremony’s announcement. I want you all to know that I will do everything during my tenure to ensure that you all have your ideas considered. It’s one thing for a person like me to attempt to crunch numbers, look at marketing trends, and forecasts. That’s only part of it. My job is to figure out what is going to make next year’s convention even better, and in my experience, nothing is going to have a bigger impact than wading into the reservoir of creativity that is the furry fandom, and it would be foolish for us not to use that resource to its fullest potential. So with next year’s nostalgic Game Shows theme in mind, if you have any ideas whatsoever, please send them my way, at:
marketing[AT]rockymountainfurcon.org
Keep your eyes on this page, website, and other social media outlets for news in the upcoming months.
Thank you all again, and see you in 2015!

To answer the obvious question, no nothing 'happened' with our previous hotel. We just outgrew the space. This new space is massive!! Really massive. It's the same hotel that Starfest is held at and NDK!

Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2013 - UPDATE
Posted 12 years agoWHEW! What a slacker I am! So sorry for not updating this sooner! Rocky Mountain Fur Con is less than two months away now.

Pre-registration will close on July 1st at Midnight so it's probably a good idea to get that done! :)

The Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2012 Conbook Cover Contest!
Posted 13 years agoAre you a new artist hoping to make an impression? Are you an artist that's been around and want to show everyone just how good you really are? Well, for the first time EVER, we present:
Details/Deadline: Submissions will be accepted between now and June 10th. The winner will be announced on Friday, June 15. The winning artist will have their artwork prominently displayed as our conbook cover. In addition, the winner will also receive a Sponsor Level Membership to RMFC 2013! Runner-ups will have portions of their artwork displayed throughout the conbook, and in-full as a thumbnail on a Submissions page. Submissions should be emailed to conbook[at]rockymountainfurcon.org with 2012 Conbook Cover Contest in the subject.
Size/Format/Content Requirements: The conbook cover is 7 1/2 x 20 inches, basically two standard 8.5 x 11 pages side by side. Your design should be able to fit that size. Because our conbook cover is printed in full color, we'd prefer that your submission also be in color. Submissions should be of high print quality, in PDF or TIF format. The artist has full discretion as far as content, as long as it can be tied to the theme (however loosely) "Furry Apocalypse!" Please keep your work PG-13. Submissions should be emailed to conbook[at]rockymountainfurcon.org with 2012 Conbook Cover Contest in the subject.
Fine Print!Any artwork used is published to support and publicize the convention, its charities, and the artist, not for the financial benefit of any other individual (including the convention staff and directors) or any for-profit company. Rocky Mountain Fur Con does not claim exclusive rights over the artwork, the artist may republish their artwork at any time. Artwork may be reused to promote subsequent Rocky Mountain Fur Con conventions. Submitting artwork is not a guarantee of publication. However, we do try to use as much of the art as possible. Details on this contest have bee posted to our website and facebook page :)
Can't wait to see what you guys come up with!

2012 - Just 4 months away!
Posted 13 years agoWell, we figured it was about time to update the page here as it is the tail end of April and Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2012 gets closer and closer. Our Guests of honor this year will be David Hopkins, creater of the online comic Jack, and Syber of Made Fur You. The theme is "Furry Apacalypse!" Yus, we know it's been done before, but we were the first to announce it way back when.. so there!
Anyway, it's already looking like it's going to be a good year!
