We’ve applied for our 501(c)7!
That means we can pool our money for events without owing taxes on the money we collect.
Unfortunately, the IRS has a lot of rules about this: basically, we can only pool money from Club members.
Because of that, we need need three things from everyone who wants to attend events where we pool our money:
Just to be clear: weekly MeetUps, individually paid restaurant trips, and every other event are still free and open to anyone and everyone. Membership requirements only apply to tax-free merchandise and events where we pool our money.
Sorry. it’s the IRS.
The upside is we get great deals on group packages, venues, and events like Trick or Meat. No more cramming into the bar at Fogo like sardines!
In order to qualify for membership in the Club, a member shall be required to declare themselves to be a “furry.”
1. Definition of a Furry
A furry, according to Merriam-Webster is “a person who identifies with and enjoys sometimes dressing as anthropomorphic animals or creatures especially as a member of a fandom devoted to the practice.”
2. Expanded Definition of a Furry
The Club explicitly adopts a more expansive definition of furry. A furry is anyone with an interest in furry themes, furry attire, furry personas, anthropomorphism, pup and/or handler play, or non-furry anthropomorphic personas including but not limited to plane-sonas, mechano-sonas (such as Protogens), scalies, and other commonly accepted sub-groups of the furry fandom.
I declare I’m a furry as defined by either or both of the above definitions.
Members of the following groups must have their applications reviewed before approval. Please Contact Us through one of the methods listed for more information.
Once you hit Submit you’re all done!
You’ll receive an email with your Member ID in a few seconds.
If you’re buying more than one ticket for an event, make sure everyone who will be attending has filled out this form.
Because this is an IRS taxes thing, we will have to refund tickets for non-Members.
