"This is it!
Where: Grant Park, Chicago
When: Saturday 2/16 at 2pm
What: Fursuiting!
Who: You! Fursuiters AND handlers!
The current plan is to park in the Millennium Park Garage (http://www.millenniumgarages.com/mi.....m-park-garage/), which seems to be the most convenient parking. I am open to changing this if somebody more knowledgable has a different suggestion. Let's meet, then, at the Southeast elevator lobby area on Level 2 (http://www.millenniumgarages.com/mi.....-2-garage-map/) and try to park in that vicinity for suiting up.
You're welcome to note me with your email if you want me to send updates that way. I will also try to amend this post if anything changes with regards to a meeting point.
One last thing: YES, this is the same day as LAFF bowling! YES, you can go to both! I don't expect this to go past 5pm, if that.
See you there! "

Just an update to this - I'm open to suggestions re: parking and a specific meeting place; I just don't know the park well enough to say. If you'd prefer to park elsewhere and meet us at that elevator area that also works!
damn my costume is still in the works =3= *sighs* hope it goes great!
Sounds like fun! But sadly we have a family get together at that time but my bf and I should be at LAFF that night! It'll be our first time at LAFF too!
Just a heads up; I was informed some time ago that It might be Illegal to wear a mask that conceals your identity in parts of chicago.
People have suited at the Bean for years now, with no problems. Just don't do stupid things. :P
I'm going to be downtown by the Art Institute of Chicago museum anyway. I might just pop by! Maybe I'll bring my partial with me. :3
Also, as an FYI for those not driving to the event- If you're coming from the south suburbs or Northwest/Northern Indiana, Metra Electric and the South Shore Line both stop at Van Buren Street Station, which is literally in Grant Park, just steps from where we'll be meeting.
Hey, just checking in and glad to see the interest - I look forward to meeting all y'all :D
I did speak with Millennium Park yesterday and they didn't have any issues with costumes, as long as, as someone else said, we don't do stupid stuff and bother people. Words to live by!
See you soon!

Posting from my phone-- you guys must've left at 2 sharp cause by the time I got there (a couple minutes late) you guys were gone :<
We didn't leave the garage until 15min after 2pm. Maybe you were in the wrong section...that place is a maze and I ended up walking around all of Grant Park until I figured out where they were.
I did that too, both aboveground and belowground. Oh well. Hope a less confusing place is chosen next time.
Been home a few hrs.. good thing probably that I didn't try for the bowling part. Was tired from drive... but I had a fun experience for my first meet.. :)
Ooops... gonna post the pics as soon as sort them from the phone..
