No on-site Registration
Please be aware that there is currently no on-site registration.
We used to have a laptop that people who were bringing guests who were not in our system could use to enter their vital information, and the Front Desk could then retrieve it and print a Release Form for them to sign. Unfortunately, we've had three laptops stolen within the past year, and are no longer equipped for doing on-site registration.
So, make sure your guests are registered in our system before coming to an event. Ideally, they’d upload their COVID vaccination information as well, but it can be shown at the front desk.
Our apologies, but this is non-negotiable.

Message from the Chairman
|
Brothers, Thank you for making our 43rd Anniversary a blowout weekend! It is always difficult working with a new venue and new caterer but it was worth every bit of work we put into it. Folsom Street Foundry was an amazing setting for one of the largest silent auctions in recent years while the Spanish-themed dinner provided by MamaBear catering was a welcome change of pace. In addition to honoring MamaBear, we also recognized longtime volunteer Michelle Garner and awarded much-deserved Honorary member status to Daddy Mike Floyd before the sold-out crowd. Though the weather did not cooperate well for our outdoor social events, both of our dungeon parties were spectacular. Brothers and guests from around the world came together once again to play and love one another. The intensity and creativity of the play was mind-blowing. I’d love to hear your thoughts about any aspect of Anniversary Weekend. Please use the contact chairman link on our web site. Looking forward this year, our March 25 party is themed “St. Paddles Day.” Mike Walker has handcrafted three beautiful shamrock-hilted paddles for the event. Each attendee will receive a raffle ticket at the door and can purchase additional chances to win one (cash only). Our goal this year is to make each party have something unique about it. We want to make sure that there is always something to look forward to. While we are still working on themes and other ideas, we do have our August party slated as a joint party with ONYX Northwest. This is something I personally have been trying to help make happen for a few years. We are excited to partner with them! That’s it for me this month. I’ll see you soon. With love in leather, |
