7 Years of Middlesfur 13th September 2020 Discord (irl cancelled)

Hey furs, 7 years ago Middlesbrough got a little bit more furry when we became Middlesfur! Things have changed from year to year, venues, committee members, global pandemics but we’re still here and are rushing on to the double digits and you furs are to thank. We wouldn’t be Middlesfur without our Middlesfurs and thank you for your continued support.

Now due to the current nature of the world this months schedule is not as concrete as other years so keep an eye out for changes on social media and or here as we adapt to the changes:

12:00-17:00 discord meet

18:00 Outdoor meet at the big TV near Middlesbrough Centre Square Fountain. Masks and distancing are mandatory and no sharing of fursuits. Weather permitting.

Unfortunately the committee decided it wasn’t safe to have yet. We want to see you furs as much as you do and haven’t made this choice lightly.

12th July 2020 (discord meet)

Hey furs, we hope you’re all well in these crazy times. Despite the pubs opening this month, we are having another online meet. We want to see you furs as much as you do and didn’t make this decision lightly. We promise things will go back to normal and well be happy to see you again.

The meet will be from 12-5 on discord and will consist of online games and chatting. If you have any ideas for other activities please reach out to a committee member. We love you furs and stay safe.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Notice

Hey furs, it comes with great regret that we bring you the following message. Middlesfur will not run this April and until improvements occur with the Coronavirus situation. We are hoping to run online “meetings” and updates will be coming as we find the best ways to cope.

FAQ

Q. Have there been any confirmed members with COVID-19?

A. Not to our knowledge. However, most people are not able to be tested at this time and symptoms don’t show straight away.

Q. I have recently worn my suit to another meet, should I be concerned?

A. Please do not share heads and wash them thoroughly as possible, as you should anyway.

Q. Will there be an “unofficial meetup”?

A. No. Also please do not schedule your own as this goes against our and the government’s position on group gatherings at this time.

Q. Well I’m going to make my own meet, with blackjack and hookers.

A. Illegal gambling and prostitution goes against our C.O.C and you’d be risking legal action, ban, and more serious diseases.

Q. Are furs of X species more likely to catch COVID-19?

A. Although research is slim and inconclusive, we can say with much confidence that there’s no correlation to one species of fur getting infected over another. Please can we not have another Black Death incident were rat furs received unfair blame.
