Well, it is finally underway and I am so glad that I got as many responses as I did. The Robinson Furmeet is coming up soon and I am really hoping that it turns out to be a good one. And hopefully, as long as things go well, there will be meets roughly every two weeks! So here is a slight repost of some info you may be needing:
Niko's has a really nice, warm little interior and good coffee. They have other beverages as well and some food. Not much like Panera Bread, but decent food none the less. Mostly coffee shop type snacks like cakes, cookies, even ice cream. And they even have free Wi-Fi. So here is the info:
Location: Niko's Coffee House

Date: Saturday February 21, 2009
Time: 7pm-10pm
I am hoping that this will be a fun time for everyone and that it'll be a nice way to relax after a stressful week of work, school, and other daily activities. I think it will also be a good way for local furs to connect with other furs in PA. This is open to everyone and anyone that would like to attend, and I am hoping for a good turnout. I am suggesting that if there are any artists or writers that would like to share their work it'd be a good way to network. And if anyone would like to bring a boardgame, cards, or would like to suggest anything please do. Like I said this is the first furmeet I have ever set up. So I hope to see you all there :3
And on a few things, the owner of the shop told me that since we are using the room for a bit that we are expected to make some purchases in exchange, but the place is very reasonable price wise so I don't think it will be much problem. Also, some do's and don'ts:
DO:
Have a good time
Act somewhat behaved x3
Feel relaxed
Enjoy the social time
Try some beverages or food(especially the Italian/French sodas and ice cream!)
Have FUN!
Wear ears, tails, badges,collars, etc. if you want
Be polite to the workers and owners of the shop(So we can have more meets here please)
Clean up after yourselves
DO NOT:
Get too roudy
Misbehave
Trash the place
Damage or destroy any furnature, decorations, etc.
Be miserable
Feel nervous(trust me, I am a LOT more nervous about the meet than you are x3)
I ask that you please use some common sense while in a semi-public cafe'. I would really really love to show some hospitality and make a good impression so that we can continue to have furmeets here in Robinson. So please, just be on good behavior. It's ok to be silly and have a good time, but it can cause problems when that sillyness makes a mess.
The main thing is just have fun, relax, and enjoy the evening. I would like some feedback after the meet and will be making a post here asking for some critiques. If there is anything you'd like to say, or ask, feel free to do so. I want to make it fun and enjoyable as I can for everyone.
Well, see you all there :3
