Midwest FurFest is delighted to announce a new event, one designed to bring the local community together outside of the usual November convention and to celebrate the wonderful spirit of the local furry folks. Mark your calendars now for…
The First Annual Midwest FurFest Summer Picnic!
Where and when will you find this nifty picnic? Why, immediately following the June LAFF Softball game on June 20, 2009, at Prairie Springs Park at Lake Andrea, Pleasant Prairie, WI! There is an awesome picnic pavillion located right by the softball field, so the picnic will take place rain or shine. Plans are still in the works, but we hope to have some fun entertainment and of course some really great food. How great? How about a steak dinner? We’ll have steak, some sort of meat for non-beef types, and even some vegetarian options. Naturally, we’ll have a tasty dessert as well! The best part is that, like the softball game, the picnic will be free to everyone, courtesy of Midwest FurFest!
We’ll also have many members of the Midwest FurFest staff at the picnic (heck, you already see many of them at every softball game anyway!) and we’ll be happy to talk about the convention, answer any questions you might have, and help you make plans for the convention!
Even though it’s free, RSVP’s will be very important for this event to make sure that we have enough food for everyone. Please submit your RSVP by commenting on the post that Stevie has set up, making sure to say explicitly that you will be attending the picnic. Thanks, and we hope to see you there!
Don’t forget that the Jelly Belly factory outlet is just a couple miles away from there!
That’s our contingency plan should the game be rained out, but we’d be back at the park for the picnic afterward.
Wow, both a softball game and a MFF Picnic in Pleasant Prairie, seems my backyard has become the Midwest furry fandom epicenter!
So this means you’ll actually be in attendance, right? RIGHT? *poke*
