For those who wonder if the tales of Judy's tub are true, I point you to
http://homepage.mac.com/helenmclean/ferrets_2002/day1/ and assure you
that Judy's tub parties are NOT to be missed!
Besides the tub party, there are other great informal events that are not
part of the official 2003 International Ferret Symposium program. You
can enjoy a traditional southern dinner to benefit the Ferret Business
of Georgia (car pooling will be arranged) on Thursday evening. Join new
friends for dinner on Friday and explore Atlanta's Underground. Come
a day early or stay a day late and visit some of the wonderful local
attractions. (You can even win tickets from the great Georgia raffle!

Don't know anyone else who's going? Just overcome your shyness and walk
up to any person wearing a ferret shirt and say "Hi, I'm soandso from
suchandsuch." You'll find ferret people to be the warmest, friendliest,
most welcoming group of people around!! Before you know it, you'll have
a ton of new friends to share your love of ferrets and enjoy the
Symposium activities with.
And of course, there are all the official events: the speakers, raffles,
table topics, vendors, reception, celebrity auction, drawing for the WRMQ
and the opportunity to meet the illuminati of the ferret world: Dr.
Williams, BIG, BobC, Wolfy, Jeanne Carley and MANY others.
Remember, early registration deadline is August 4 and the event itself
is October 3-5! For more info, contact any IFC committee member or

Hope to see you there!
