What The Fur is happening in 2010
Posted by Feli (Chris Pilgrim) on Tue 27 Oct 2009 - 15:20Someone decided to call their convention What The Fur? On the upside, it seems to be having the desired effect!
What The Fur? (or WTF) is one of the burst of Canadian Furry conventions in 2010, this one gracing the beautiful city of Montreal with all sorts of furry goodness! So get your eye patches and katanas ready, the battle is about to begin!
The first thing I feel should be officially announced is our URL: http://www.whatthefur.ca
The ssecond? Our theme:
Pirates vs. Ninjas
The battle has been raging since time imemmorial (or since 2003, we're not too sure), and now we bring you the chance to decide! Are you more in line with the likes of Blackbeard? Your muzzle scarred and a cutlass at your side? Or are you invisible, silent, and deadly? Come from the far east?
Guests
Let me be the first to thank our two wonderful guests of honour for the inaugural year of What The Fur: Max BlackRabbit and gNAW. Both of these gentlemen have been busy in the fandom, both artists of high regard.
Dates
After much wringing of the wrists and head-desking, we've managed to secure our dates for the first full weekend of June, the 4th to the 6th. We're sorry for the change in dates from our previously anticipated 11 to 13th, but with the Formula 1 races having been undecided until now, we could not in good standing announce a date and then have to charge you an arm and a leg just to attend.
Hotel
We will be holding WTF at the wonderful Days Hotel, located in the heart of the downtown sector of Montreal. The hotel is within a few blocks of nearly all kinds of food, a short hop on the Metro (Montreal's subway system) from the picturesque Old Port, and 2 blocks from the historic rue Ste. Catherine, which sits over a network of underground malls called the Underground City.
Our registration pages are open, and we hope to see you soon!
