Fursconsin Meets

Fursconsin Meets, or FCSM, is a SFW furry group in southeastern Wisconsin that hosts furmeets, fursuit romps and volunteer outings around the Milwaukee area. Its regular programmes are arcade and bowling meets at Round1 in Greendale, a free summer picnic in Waukesha and the yearly Boo at the Zoo furwalk at the Milwaukee County Zoo. The 2026 Boo at the Zoo is the fifth, and it is scheduled for two sessions on Saturday, October 17 and Saturday, October 24, 2026. A Round1 meet is scheduled for Sunday, November 15, 2026.

What to Expect

Boo at the Zoo is a parade-style furwalk through the zoo's Halloween event, following the trick-or-treating route among families and children. Fursuiters and non-suiters are both welcome, and you can bring a candy bucket. For 2026, arrival is at 5pm and the walk runs from 6pm to 8:30pm with several breaks, and every attendee can take home a free sticker made for the fifth year.

The Round1 meets are gatherings at the Round1 arcade and bowling center in Greendale, with arcade games, bowling and claw machines, and plenty of people who just come to socialize and eat. Some meets add a raffle. The annual picnic at Frame Park in Waukesha is a free, registered day of grilled hot dogs and brats, a potluck, a raffle and outdoor fursuiting; the 2026 picnic ran on June 13.

How to Get Tickets

Most FCSM meets are free, and you just turn up and pay for your own games or food. Boo at the Zoo is different: you must buy a Boo at the Zoo admission ticket online from the Milwaukee County Zoo in advance, and if you want to walk on both Saturdays you need a ticket for each. For 2026 the zoo's online prices start at $18 for adults and $16 for ages 3 to 12, with children 2 and under free and parking included. The zoo does not sell Boo at the Zoo tickets at the gate, and FCSM warns that they run out every year.

The picnic asks for free registration. Registration forms, ticket links and updates are posted in the Fursconsin Meets Telegram group.
