[edit] Location
Tropicon takes place in the middle of an arbor settlement on Entenwall Island in Köpenick, Berlin. The site is comprised of a main building and two smaller outbuildings. A grassed area offers guests the opportunity to camp. Furthermore, there is a large communal tent and a small pavilion tent avilable as the Fursuit lounge.
Since Tropicon is on an island with no access roads or bridges, access is obtained through two boats: the Pequid (a small rowing boat with a 2.5-hp two-stroke engine) and the SF Jones (a dinghy).
[edit] Activities
Since 2008, Tropicon has run the "Tropical Fursuit Games". Previous disciplines have included throwing cups, archery, and table tennis. The planned hoopla event in 2008 did not occur due to onset of rain, and in 2009, the entire Tropical Fursuit Games were cancelled after the sudden onset of storms. Instead, a party was held in the communal tent.
