Please use this link to book your hotel room. See the top of the page and put in the days you’d would like to reserve.
Since we can’t have a ferret show in California, we’re going one state over and inviting our friends from Arizona and anywhere else to join us. And we’re asking them to please share their ferrets and let’s have some fun.
Ferrets are welcome at this hotel. They’ve done ferret shows before. Join us for some ferret fun!
We have arranged for room nights at $149. Details to follow. Tickets to go on sale Sept 1, 2021
Saturday – January 15th – 11 am doors open. Let the fun begin!
Noon – Luncheon Speaker; Diane Simonian of AZ Ferret Rescue.
Diane will discuss the ferret rescue operation in Arizona, AZ Ferret Rescue.
Stay tuned for more details. Including the show schedule. Actual ferrets! But this is a fun show, no points. Hey, this is our first show!
6pm Dinner Speaker
Matty Giuliano is a retired animal cruelty officer in New Jersey, and the force behind Musky the ferret.
My Name Is Musky! is a children’s book about me! It tells my story of how I was abandoned by my old family, brought to the animal shelter, and found my new forever home.
Matty and Musky are probably the most prominent ferret advocates in the country and we are happy to announce that Matty is our first comfirmed speaker.
Sunday, January 16th. Day 2
9am Breakfast Speaker
I’m sorry to report that we can’t have Bob Church as our speaker.
Instead, I’d much appreciate an honest discussion. Do we want to make this round up an annual event?
And if so, how can we make it better?
So join us for over priced box breakfasts, bring your ideas and I hope, let’s build an ever-improving annual ferret event to strengthen our ties and improve the condition of ferrets in these Western States!
