A cold wind has blown through the Land of 10,000 Lakes. The fish huddle under two feet of snow and four feet of ice. Wolves play in the snow while bears sleep peacefully in their dens; and all the furries are coming out in packs to the Snowpocalypse!

'''Snowpocalypse''' is a one-day event hosted by [[MNFurs]]. This event is based out of the Twin Cities in [[Wikipedia:Minnesota|Minnesota]]. This is becoming a yearly in addition to the picnics and other sponsored events.

== History ==
=== 2010 ===
The first winter event occurred on March 6th, 2010 and was hosted at the Days Inn Bloomington West, Minnesota. It was a single room event that drew approximately 125 people in which donations were encouraged to cover the cost of the event.

=== 2011 ===
The second year is hosted on March 12th, 2011 at the Country Inn & Suites, St. Paul, Minnesota. It will consist of multiple room for a broader programming track (Anime/Video room, Fursuit photograph, Fursuit games, dance, etc), and will provide a room block. The primary event, like in 2010, is free, but a decision was made to charge $10 for a commendatory badge and access to the den in order to offset the cost of food being provided. However, the bulk of the cost is still being covered by donations to [[MNFurs]].

===Who’s invited?===

Snowpocalypse welcomes both locals to the Twin Cities area, the greater Minnesota area, and those out-of-state. Anyone who is willing to travel to Minnesota in March is welcome to come and join in the celebration of the tail end of winter in Minnesota.

===Event Details===

'''MNFurs'''

MNFurs is a group that offers resources to aide the Furry Community in Minnesota which directly sponsor events mostly in the Twin Cities metropolitan area; and offers online communication resources for greater Minnesota.

'''History'''

MNFurs evolved from a small, twin-cities based, bi-weekly furmeet known as the SNCFurs which started in 2002. The original attendance of the SNC meets and small events were less then a dozen people, and has since evolved to a community which supports indoor and outdoor events from 20-125 people and regular bi-weekly meets ranging between 30 to 60 people.

In 2004 the SNC Furs held the first annual picnic which was the start of evolving the group to something bigger. It was their first event with over 50 people in attendance and the groundwork for MNFurs as it is today. The official transition over to the MNFurs namesake was made in 2006. In 2007 a basic community website was created which was re-made in 2010 to support the growing online presence and communications channels MNFurs supports today.

In March of 2010 MNFurs sponsored the first winter hotel event which became the basis for the [[Snowpocalypse]] annual winter event.

Furmeet

2011-02-09T04:07:28Z

Yarrick: /* Calendars */

A '''furmeet''' is a relatively small real-life gathering of [[furries]]. Furmeets may be sporadically scheduled or regular events. A furmeet may range in size, from a small group to dozens. When a furmeet attracts more than approximately 100 attendees, and starts to add features such as organized programming and the sale of goods, it begins to be considered a [[convention]].

At furmeets, attendees will often have dinner, watch [[:Category:Movies|movies]] (both furry and non-furry related), play [[:Category:roleplaying games|roleplaying games]] or [[:Category:video games|video games]], or draw. Sometimes a furmeet is as casual as simply getting together to talk and have a few drinks at a local bar or pub. Furmeets can be a fun way to meet other furs and make new friends, get to know local furs, and generally have fun.
