We've been inundated with dealer applications (a good problem to have, thank you everyone for applying)! We're closing applications for the regular dealers den, but we're still accepting applications for the 18+ den!

We've been brewing a concoction of applications for you magical mutts: Apps for Dealers, Reg, DJs, Panels, Volunteers, and more are open! Check it out at www.gatewayfurmeet.org Don't worry, the room block will be opening at a later date.

We promise that the fur exchange being a block or so away was complete coincidence 😅

As some of you have already guessed correctly... We will be seeing you all at Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark next fall for a magical time! We're excited to bring the con back into the heart of the city. Room block is not open at this time, but we will share when it is.

We have some big news for y'all... We won't be seeing ANY of you March of next year! We'll be seeing you October 3rd through 5th 2025 in a swanky new hotel! For now, I'm just going to enjoy the view...

FYI: This will be our primary social media platform going forward. Due to the unfortunate changes on X, we must work to protect our artists. Our team of volunteers make TTFC happen, and we greatly appreciate their efforts! 😎❤️

Hey uh... Yeah. Long time no bark. I unno, don't really have much right now, but big things are in the works. We have so much to share with ya'll soon. So anyway here's a picture of my doggies (Elsa the basset and Anna the beagle)

We finally got a good view of all the suspects. It took a while to interview everyone, but here's the lineup: The full resolution fursuit photo. 330.5 MB of furry goodness. drive.google.com/file/d/1OS5k... Please note that it's so large, your phone may have issues opening/rendering it.

We're already hard at work improving the foundations of GFM to support more fun and even more memories for you all. Please help us determine how we grow and new ways we can make the con better for you by taking a few minutes to fill out our survey forms.gle/ghksr5J45LJa...

For those that missed it, Here's your culprit for who "merked the honse"

The obligatory numbers post! We are astounded and so very fortunate to have called 978 of you amazing people our friends this weekend. You were able to come together to help raise $18,322 for Saint Louis Pet Rescue! Thank you all so very much for such an amazing 2024!

If you or a friend are looking for something and can't find it, we have A LOT of unclaimed Lost and Found items in Con Ops. Please swing by and see if we have something of yours!
