Morphicon 2006: "The Food Chain"
May 5-7 at the Radisson Columbus-Worthington
In this report:
******************************
Morphicon Free
Fall Picnic Announced (8/27)!
Morphicon's infamous Free Fall Picnic is a great kick-off to this year's
delicious edible theme! Once again, we'll try to stuff furries until they
burst with free meat, chips, and soda. And everyone's invited!
Here's the details from Venji, Morphicon's 2006 Outreach Planner:
I would like to announce that Morphicon's Annual Free Fall picnic will be
held at the end of this month. The details are posted at the end of this
announcement.
This years picnic shall again be held at Sharon Woods Metro Park, in the
same place as it was last year. The reasoning for this is that it is
easily accessible from major roadways and not to hard to find, and there's
plenty of room for everyone.
We shall have lots of food, and a few games planned for everyone to join
in on.
We shall be holding this picnic on August 27th, which is the last Saturday
of this month. Initial setup will be done around 10 am, so everyone can
start
gathering then, and the first food will probably be prepared by noon.
What: Morphicon Free Fall Picnic
Why: To hang out with local furs, make new friends, and have lots of fun.
When: Saturday, August 27th, 10 am to 5 pm.
Where: Sharon Woods Metro Park, (Columbus) in the lakeside picnic area. We should
have a shelter and banners/posters displaying where we are all gathering.

Ohio Furry Writers
Meeting Report
From SonicBlu, organizer of the Furry Writers of Ohio:
What a first meeting! We covered quite a few discussion topics and got
some ideas going for the future of our group. Several people showed up for
the event. Looked like everyone had a good time. I greatly enjoyed it. :)
As per one of the topics we discussed, it seems everyone was strongly in
favor of creating an entire mailing list for our group activities. I took
the liberty of starting up the account last night. The link to join is as
follows:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ohiofurrywriters/
Announcements and discussions about the group and its events will continue
to be posted there. Whether you are a writer who is interested in joining
the group meets, or if you cannot make the meets (but would still like to
join the mailing list), you are welcome to join nonetheless.

Help Morphicon
Select a Charity for 2006
Morphicon has been proud to partner with the Animal Adoption Foundation
over the past two years. But it's time to bring the issue of charity back
to our attendees and ask who you all would like to see benefit from your
furry generosity.
Ideally, we'd like to know which charities in the central Ohio area would
be appropriate for our donation. We can select any charity that is
furry-relevant and a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization,
provided there is no conflict of interest between Morphicon's Board of
Directors and the charity.
To suggest a possible candidate, please join the Morphicon mailing list at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Morphicon/ and let us know what you think!
