Galloping Ghost Furmeet 12-13

Hey y’all! We got the date for our final festive meet of 2025 over at the Galloping Ghost arcade: Saturday, December 13th, from 5 PM – 10 PM! Includes dinner at Tony’s at 9 PM!

The usual rules apply!

  • This is a fursuit friendly gathering, so full and partial suits are all welcome!
  • If you haven’t already, please provide proof of COVID vaccination to @Werewolfdudez  , whether you have a card or just have proof in general.
  • Our tourney game this time will be Vampire Savior! The winner gets a free arcade/pinball pass “double pass” which can be used at the next meet (or whenever you want)!
  • If you wanna eat with us at Tony’s, PLEASE fill the RSVP form out no later than 11:59 PM on Wednesday, December 10th: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeKRsVGjsQx9hZIRyvxY7eP-BWbd6oucxoL469iNLjS1JyAvQ/viewform?usp=pp_url

Lastly, we also have a rideshare channel on this very Telegram group! Please post in this if you need a ride or can provide rides to others. You can also take public transit (i.e. Metra trains and Pace buses), as the arcade is a short walk away from the Brookfield Metra station!

All other questions, hit our admins up: @LilacPupper @Zekethetiger @Skylar1120 @CBBlueBear

Hope to see y’all then, after MFF!

FWA Expands Panel Locations

Recently FWA released the following statement

More Convention Space

We’ve already shared that The Courtland Grand will be joining us for FWA 2026 as one of our convention venues, hosting registration and more. But we’re not stopping there, we’ll have more venue news soon, especially for vendors. Stay tuned.

Programming Spread Across All Hotels

This is something we’ve been working to do for a few years now, but something we’re pushing on even harder on now. We’re distributing events more evenly across our venues so no single hotel reaches overwhelming density. This means more panel rooms, more spaces for meet & greets, and… Maybe even more stages. (no promises… yet!)

You can find the full statement here https://furryweekend.com/blog/25-11-19-your-feedback-is-shaping-fwa/

To be honest folks, this is the 1st time I ever heard of a fur con whose panels are at multiple hotels.

Although I have heard of other conventions doing this. This is certainly great news for anyone who wants to do a Panel. But like I said other cons have done this and they have run in to issues. The biggest being the weather and timing between Panels or events they like to see. How are they going to pull this off looks like we have to wait to next year and see…
