Hi all,

This is a friendly reminder about Anthrocon programming on Thursday evening.  Anthrocon has begun hosting minimal programming (mostly with the art track and the dances) on Thursday evenings.  This is mainly due to the artists wanting to contribute to the convention when the dealer room is not open.  

In order to attend these events by really stellar artists from the furry community, you MUST have your membership badge.  So in order to attend Thursday evening panels, you must be registered.

Pre-registering saves you money, and you don't have to wait in the longer on-site registration lines.  Most people who pre register are in and out of the registration area in less than 15 minutes.  Plus, for those that care about their badge number, it does give you a lower badge number.  (This does not impact your membership at all, but some people like having a lower number.)

So you get to attend Thursday events, save money, save time in the pre-reg lines, and can be ready for all the events on Friday morning....all by pre-registering. How cool is that?!?  So what are you waiting for?  Be sure you pre-register for the convention!

KP

I always encourage people to pre-register as it will save them load of time waiting in line.  Just have to make one correction to what you said, K.P.  There is on-site registration on Thursday.  Pre-registration tends to open up around 12:00 or earlier if possible.  On-site registration will be opening up around 2:00pm on Thursday.  However the wait for on-site registration is something fierce on Thursday so I would still recommend that people pre-register if at all possible.  One other benefit to pre-registering: if you can not make it to pick up your badge before registration closes on Thursday you can pick up your badge from con-ops.

Nicona is correct. While Pre-registerring is cheaper, creates less work for the convention stafff, is certian to get you through registration more quickly, and is in all accounts a smart idea.. we do have On-site registration on Thursdays. However, registration does not sell One-Day passes on Thursday, which is probably where the point of confusion was.
