Knoebels Grove Furmeet '23

Hey everyone, I cannot believe it but its been 10 years since I first started hosting the Summer Furmeet here at Knoebels Grove!

Last year was quite fun as we managed to get into a larger cottage than the year before. Money was tight but we managed a great week to also include a fun Furmeet as well. This year we have the same cottage and planning continues in our Telegram group. If you're interested in this, please use the info below and contact me.

This year we will be hosting in late June again, and while this clashes with those wanting to attend AC, these dates will be as is for now but may change in a coming year. The plan is pretty much the same with the meet n greet and snacks n stuff followed by minigolf and then traipsing about the park BUT with a new twist! This year shall be hosted right at the Cottage which is nestled right between the Phoenix Roller Coaster and the Knoebels Lumber Yard.

The biggest differences this change will bring are: Private(ish) meeting place with ample seating, access to cooking facilities and refrigeration, Access to indoors setting with airconditioning, access to a firepit for campfire! Since the area is technically off of main park's borders, Fursuiting is allowed at the Cottage area however only tails, paws, ears etc are allowed in the park itself.

In regards to the COVID-19, Knoebels has revised their policies to better protect their customers. Masks or faceshields may still be worn while in the park. Hand sanitizer stations have been placed throughout the park and frequent hand washing is recommended. A friend of mine also suggested I post this link so you may see for yourself what is being done to keep everyone as safe as possible: https://www.knoebels.com/plan/safe-play

To get to the cottage since it is rather hidden: either walk up the main roadway that cuts through the park then turn right onto a small dirt path just after the Phoenix and Gasworks OR from within the park go up the road between the left of the Log Flume and Bathroom station and follow it almost all the way to the lumber yard. The Cottage is the last one on the left and will have a White Dodge Caravan in front of it.

If you plan on bringing food, suiting materials, etc that you dont wanna trudge through the park on a wagon or whatnot, please contact me and I'll give driving directions to reach the Cottage, but ultimately parking will be at the Employees lot on top of the hill or at the main customer parking lot.

Any questions, concerns, comments, suggestions, weird rants, inquiries, plannings, etc can be directed to me at the following places:

Knoebels Grove Annual FurMeet

Hey everyone! Once again its time to post the Annual Knoebels Grove Furmeet!!

Last year was quite interesting as the camping group got to experience an entire week in one of Knoebels Grove's nice Cottages on-site! Now that our foot is in the door so to speak, this will be an ongoing occurence and I'll try my best to upgrade to larger cottages to allow more interested folks to come and stay with us on the park. Thus far the cottage has been completely stuffed with folks, but this doesnt mean anyone else who'd like to come and make a vacation of this has to be left out. There should be plenty of Camping sites both on and off the park that are up for reservation and if you'd like to coordinate with me, feel free to contact me and I'll put some info below.

In regards to the COVID-19, Knoebels has revised their policies to better protect their customers and still adhere to Pennsylvania's stipulations on public businesses. Masks or faceshields may still be required while in the park with the exception of the Smoke pits and the restaurant areas. Hand sanitizer stations have been placed throughout the park and frequent hand washing is recommended. A friend of mine also suggested I post this link so you may see for yourself what is being done to keep everyone as safe as possible: https://www.knoebels.com/plan/safe-play

This year we are hosting a lil later in the Summer at the end of June due to the availability of the aforementioned Cottage. I realize this put us REALLY close to AC, but the nicest thing of Knoebels is the ability to come and have a blast with minimal budgetary impact!

The meeting place will be our usual spot at Pavilion D near the giant Ferris Wheel as seen here http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11302365/ If for some reason this area is taken, we'll have weird people in ears and tails looking for other people in ears and tails to flag them to the new location XD One way or another, we always find eachother!

The meet will start as close to noon as possible...sometimes we hang around a bit for folks waylaid by traffic, weather, or other unforeseeables. Rides, attractions, foods, and more are all to be had at Knoebels. If you've never been before, admission is free, parking is free, pavilions are free, live entertainment is free. Monday they feature a ride-all-day bracelet or you can go old-skool and purchase ride tickets. The most wonderful thing of this park is its flexibility to fit nearly any budget.

After the initial meet n greet we march across the park to the golf course for a round of minigolf (if you're broke, np's we always chip in so everyone can participate!) and afterwords either split up into smaller groups or stick together and hit the park.

As per park rules, suiting is sadly not allowed, however tails, paws, ears etc are fine so long as they adhere to ride safety stipulations when riding rides.

The meet n greet is a short portion of our day, but if you feel like bringing a bag of chips or a 6-pack of soda or some such, please do!

So if you've joined us before or are a newcomer, we'd love to have you for a day of furry fun and excitement at Knoebel's Grove, and have an exciting or relaxing day with a great group of folks! ^.^
