2) War Dogs Charity Needs Your Help!
LET’S RALLY TO HELP THE WAR DOGS!!!
This year FurFright will be working to raise money for The United States War Dog Association. Their organization is ‘Dedicated to all War Dogs and their Handlers--past, present, and future’.
These soldiers are heroes, and they’ve never been properly honored or remembered. They fought, sacrificed, and died for us, and they deserve our help!
Please help our Charity Auction/Raffle by donating and purchasing merchandise, and donating whatever money you can during the convention to support this very worthwhile cause.
If you’d like to donate merchandise or services, contact our Charity Auction/Raffle Director at: auction2009 HAT furfright DHOT org
***If you can't make it to the convention, merchandise and cash donations can still be made through mail and PayPal (furfright2009 HAT furfright DHOT org Be sure to put "War Dogs Donation" in the comments)***

5) Masquerade Acts Wanted!
Put an act together and be part of the show! No experience, fursuit, or talent needed!
FurFright has one of the most entertaining Masquerades in the fandom (or at least one that doesn't make the audience nauseous), and we want YOU to be a part of it! So put together an act and hit the stage with us! It doesn't matter what your experience level is, or if you have a fursuit or not, the whole point of our Masquerade is to have fun!
Acts will be judged by our esteemed panel of honorable judges (or hobos) and prizes will be awarded!
