Dear Brothers and Sisters in Leather,
On the weekend of May 16 - 18 smOdyssey, Inc. (a 501c7 not-for-profit org) will be producing a brand new event called "Northwest Leather Celebration" (NWLC). The primary venue for NWLC is a full-service luxury hotel in the San Jose area. Everyone is welcome at NWLC! We are hoping that this event will grow to provide a favorite annual gathering place for all the leather tribes.
This event will also be the new host of the annual Northwest Master/slave contest. This contest is open to all orientations and genders. Originally this contest was held at smOdyssey's annual September FolsomFringe event in San Jose, CA, but we heard and heeded our neighbors throughout the Leather community who asked that the contest date be moved to a date that would not conflict with the "high holy days" of San Francisco leather (SF Folsom Street Fair week).
It is our hope that in moving the date of this contest and creating a brand new event at which to host it, we will make it possible for a more diverse cross-section of our community to support the event by attending and participating in it.
The Northwest Leather Celebration event will feature a lot of nightlife! The Friday evening "Meet & Greet" will be at Renegades Leather Bar in San Jose, CA (approx. 5 miles from the host hotel). There will be play parties on both Friday and Saturday night at our local community dungeon, Edges (also approx 5 miles from the host hotel). In addition, the popular SouthBay women's bar, Club Savoy is less than 2 miles from the hotel hotel.
Saturday's activities will include educational seminars throughout the entire day, a catered step-down luncheon for the outgoing Northwest regional Master/slave titleholders, and of course the contest pageant and show early on Saturday evening! Sunday will feature a catered brunch and keynote speech by slave ziggy, International slave 2006.
The NWLC website is under construction, but new content is being added on a daily basis. Online registration opens soon, and admission will also be available at the door (but early birds get a $10 discount!) We hope to see as many kink community members in attendance at the event as possible so we are striving to keep costs low.
Sponsorships, advertising and other opportunities for active support are available. We welcome involvement from every group in any way they might be willing. Please help spread the word. Everyone's participation is encouraged because this event is for us all!
Warmest Regards,
Margaret Anderson aka Ms KitNboots
