When Furballs Strike (WFS) 56 - Fursuit Bowling at Kenmore Lanes
When Furballs Strike has been booked for Saturday, Feb. 21! The theme will be "Furry Luau" - our Pacific NW winters are cold and dreary, so let's take a trip to a warm tropical paradise for our late Winter furbowl! Look for many themed items (including lots of Lilo & Stitch stuff!) in our prize raffle!
We are very excited to offer two unique Ultrasponsor gifts for those registering at the $30 level: A colorful custom surfboard keychain with "FurLife - WFS 56" to commemorate our bowling Luau together, and a WFS logo drawstring backpack to hold your keychain and all the other WFS swag! Please consider purchasing a high level sponsorship if you can, as it helps support the event.
Also, for the second time ever, we will be offering a gift to EVERY registered bowler - a beautiful Hawaiian Lei! The traditional lei (flower necklace) is given as a gift signifying the "Aloha" spirit of love, friendship and community, which we enjoy celebrating at WFS. Photos of the gifts are on our Telegram Channel and website bowlwfs.net.

To pre-reg, send your payment here via Paypal OR Venmo using the "Family & Friends" option: http://paypal.me/kijani / https://www.venmo.com/u/kijanilion and please put the following in the "Notes" or "Additional Info" box:
- What name you want for the bowling score screen (this will also be your check-in name)
- Your Telegram handle (for confirmation or questions about your pre-reg, otherwise I will confirm through the app's messaging system)
- If you are bowling in a group, please list ALL of your group members so there is no confusion after the pre-reg lanes fill up
You may pay for multiple people on the same pre-reg (this is encouraged), just be sure everyone's info is in the notes, and what level reg everyone is getting is clearly noted.
We have been close to selling out of lanes the last several meets so we will be putting up to 6 bowlers per lane, and all lanes will have a minimum of 5 bowlers.
If you pre-reg, there will two separate, much faster-moving lines where you quickly pick up your raffle tickets, gifts and lane assignment. Pre-Reg closes at 11:59pm on Tuesday, Feb. 17 Do not send payments in after the cutoff as you will still have to go to the at-event reg line.
FURSUIT CHANGING/GROUP PHOTO
We have a dedicated room for fursuit changing/storage (behind the party room partition). Please be courteous to other attendees and only use this room if you need to, and try to space out usage so it doesn't overcrowd.
The fursuit group photo begins staging at 2pm before bowling starts. When setting up for the photo please let shorter fursuiters be in the front, and spread out side-to-side as much as possible since the photo is taken as a panoramic. Those in front must either sit or kneel.

11am - Party room opens
Noon - Pre-Reg Check In opens
12:15 - At-event Registration opens
1:40 - Registration closes

PRIZE RAFFLE
There will be many amazing prizes for attendees to take home in our prize raffle which takes place in the Party Room after bowling.
Extra tickets may be purchased for $1 each (or $4 for 5) anytime during reg, and we will do last call after bowling ends. Raffle proceeds go towards costs of running the world's largest furbowl, prizes for the next WFS & our monthly dues for FurLife on Meetup.

Dave & Buster's Arcade Furmeet (Bellevue)
Dave & Buster's Bellevue, 11639 NE 4th St, Bellevue, WA, USWhoo hoo, Dave & Busters is doing 1/2 price games on Sundays for a limited time, so our next Dave & Buster's Arcade Meetup will be on Sunday, January 25 starting at 5pm!
ALL games (arcade & ticket redemption) are 50% off during this meet so your chips will last twice as long! Fursuit heads are not allowed inside the arcade, but feel free to wear ears, tails and furry-related clothing.
If it isn't raining, we'll wait outside the main doors on the balcony for everyone to arrive. If the weather is bad we'll meet under the awning near the escalators. At this time you can purchase a Power Card at the front desk or kiosk located on the right side of the main doors if you need to. Once everyone is there (or at 5:15) we will proceed to the Game of the Month (Goatz N Ropes) to do our competition for prizes! After that is done, everyone is free to enjoy gaming as long as they like.
Group Dinner/Social Time
Dinner/social time will be at 6:30pm - please let me know if you plan on staying for food by answering the question when you RSVP, so we can get an accurate headcount for our reservation. The max reservation allowed at Dave & Buster's without doing a "Special Event" registration (which requires a deposit and minimum spend) is 20 people. I have booked a reservation for 20, but we should be able to fit everyone in if we go over slightly. The first 20 to RSVP "Yes" for the dinner portion will be guaranteed spots, the count will be at the bottom of the meet description and continually updated. Please only RSVP "Yes" if you can commit to attending the dinner - if too many people cancel and we are short on our reservation, we will likely be charged a cancellation fee.
Also, please combine checks if you can during dinner to expedite the checkout process!
Game of the Month Competition
As part of each monthly meet, attendees will have the opportunity to enter a fun, friendly, tournament-style competition on one of the games (will be different every meet), with the top finishers taking home prizes! Participation is optional and attendees must use their own credits to play.
