Rocky Mountain Fur Con Hotel Announcement
2010, rmfc
[info]rmfc

Due to unforeseen circumstances, Rocky Mountain Fur Con will be parting ways with the Crowne Plaza Hotel. The convention staff at RMFC would like to extend our thanks to the staff and management at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Without them, we would not have had a convention last year, and for that we are grateful.

We are excited to announce that Rocky Mountain Fur Con has a new home at the beautiful Doubletree Hotel in Denver. The Doubletree Hotel is just off I-70, five minutes from I-25 and I-225 and ten minutes from downtown Denver, making it the most centralized hotel we've ever had! Here are some awesome places that are nearby:


· 2 miles from Denver Museum of Nature and Science
· 2 miles from Denver Zoo (fursuit trip anyone?)
· Quebec Square
· The 29th Avenue Town Center
· The Shops at Northfield (A fursuit parade through this mall is being planned)

Convention Space

Holy convention space Batman! The Doubletree Hotel is providing us 30,000 square feet of convention space. Say goodbye to crossing hazardous driveways with cars zooming out! All space is centrally located and has an independent entrance

Rooms and Room Rates
RMFC was able to negotiate an awesome room rate this year!

Single/Double Beds 109.00 per night. Up to 4 Occupants.

Meaning if you have four friends come with you, you’re looking at less than 85.00 for the entire stay. Guest-room will overlook the skyline of Denver and the Rocky Mountains or the new urbanism of Stapleton. Say goodbye to views of Homeless Joe camped out across the street!

And for all you tech-happy furs, the Doubletree Hotel offers complimentary wireless high-speed Internet access in all guestrooms. Check out our Hotel page for more information.

Some additional amenities include:

Free Parking
Free shuttle to the Shops at Northfield
Free shuttle to and from DIA
Hotel Management and Staff

The Management and Staff at the Doubletree Hotel are very excited to have us! We have been contacted by several departments at the hotel welcoming us. The General Manager himself has experience with furry conventions and was the General Manager for the San Jose Doubletree while Further Confusion (FC) was there.


Passwords, Live Journal and updates Oh My!

Wow, it has been a long time since this journal has been updated. sorry for out lax! I wanted to post an recent letter from our Chairman and also provide a quick update to this journal. More will be coming soon!

From across the cluttered desk of the con-chair...
 

    There have been a lot of rumors floating around about the convention. Rumors about debt, about the life and stability of RMFC. This will, I hope address those concerns and give people improved confidence in RMFC.


 

  1. The convention is drowning in debt” While it is true the convention is in debt, the situation is not bad and well under control. Thanks to some sizable donations by a few locals furs, the convention has paid off ALL of it's debts but one and made a sizable impact in the conventions one remaining debt.

  2. I don't want to register cause the convention will take my registration to pay off debts and close up” This is 100% not true, every penny we receive from registrations, dealers, and art show panels is going directly into the convention. NO EXCEPTIONS.

  3. Why should I attend, the convention might not be around next year” Also not true. We have been in negotiations with the hotel for convention dates in 2010 and 2011 and are confident that we will have these dates signed soon. The convention is going to be around for the future, all of my staff are dedicated to this fact.


 

    While hesitance in these hard economic times is understandable I want to stress to every one that RMFC is here to stay, and we have some great plans for the future of our convention. The only thing we need now is your trust and support. We have some great guests of honor this year, Scribblefox and Terry Smith, and a wonderful events track.  We are not going away, but we are going places, and we want you along for a great ride!


 

Thank you!


 

Sorin, the Excited RMFC Chairman

My door is open to anyone with questions, concerns or comments about the convention. Don't hesitate to write me, I would love to hear from you.
