Shiroi and I will be there. I dunno if we’ll both be suiting or not. It depends on the weather.
Okay so change of plans…
Going to be suiting instead, but not as a fox…Le-gasp. =)~ Drake M.
Drake – go out and have fun. I know its been awhile since you’ve got to suit…
I can take over the Photography bit; I had a blast doing it for this Romp last year! Looking forward to it!
I can help direct people as needed as well.

I’d totally be willing to go to take pictures if I could hitch a ride from someone. I get nervous driving in the cities X.xI live right over by here. Not sure what I’m doing that day, but if I’m around I might try to find you guys, maybe take some pictures too.So in regards to Carpooling to go downtown, I’m going to throw out an idea. I know Pixel and a few others are uncomfortable with driving downtown plus since parking is a fee downtown it cheapens it for people too.I am going to suggest meeting up in the North West corner of the Ridgedale Mall parking lot at 11:30; which is very close to the intersection of 169 and 394. 394 is a straight shot into the city. We would depart the parking lot at 12:15. This gives people 45 mins to get there/have food/ transfer stuff, etc Its a 15 min drive so we would get at the staging area at 12:30.
This would be the parking lot on the west side of Macys. Big Bowl and Bar Louie are right outside the mall entrance. This also provides somewhere to go in and grab a snack before hitting the road (there is a dollar store and various fast food restaurants inside the Mall). I’m going to suggest meeting up in the corner of the parking lot Nearest to Champs across the street from the Mall.
I’ll try to secure my parents Vue for the day which can hold 2 suits in crates, 2 suits in bags, and 4 passengers.
If interested in getting a ride FROM this meetup spot, reply below. And if interested in donating your car to pick people up and drive to the meeting

Thanks Yarrick. We could consider grabbing some food out toward that area afterward, then!Weather-based Update!The forecast for Saturday has been calling for rain to varying degrees; the current expectation is light rain in the morning through the early afternoon. For now this does NOT affect the romp and the plan is to go ahead (sounds just like last year!)
HOWEVER, should the weather interfere I will post a cancelation notice by noon on Saturday (in the hopes that it gives people enough warning to alter their plans). If this happens, some of us will probably head to MOA (out of suit, of course) to hang out instead, and from there we’ll play it by ear.
TL;DR: I will post by noon Saturday if rained out; we’ll head to MOA instead if that happens.
Yeah, weather is making it debatable on if I’ll suit, but if nothing else I’d be up for dinner or something. Probably still going along to get out at least.Anyone still want to meet up at ridgedale and car pool or are people getting their own rides assuming the weather holds? It affects what time I leave and what car I take if no one is interested in carpooling from ridgedale-- MNFurs Photography Head--

I saw the post that Yarrick left regarding meeting up at Ridgedale and carpooling from there, and there’s food near there. However, I know this is kinda late, but if people aren’t planning on meeting there, would anyone be interested in meeting up early to grab a bite to eat near the main meet up location? Seems like there’s a bunch of options… https://www.google.ca/maps/search/food/@44.977407,-93.2566228,17.77z/data=!4m5!2m4!3m3!1sfood!2s220+9th+Ave+S,+Minneapolis,+MN+55415,+USA!3s0x52b32d64073cccef:0x844668a8e74f40dcHey guys,I’m downtown right now and there is some big event going on at the Mill. -Good opportunity to suit.
Weather looks fine to me. Note that there is a barricade on the street to the parking garage. Just drive around it. They are open.
Parking is 8$ CASH ONLY

Yep – there was a race this morning, street closures should be done around noon. Cash-only is unfortunately until 2pm, so MAKE SURE YOU HAVE $8 CASH.
