I. Happy New Year!

On behalf of all of us on the FMSD Leadership Team, Happy New Year! 2017 was a wild ride for everyone, and 2018 is sure to bring challenges of its own! But fortunately, you have the support of your brothers along the way!

Thank you for making last year a great one, and we look forward to growing together this year!

If you haven't had the chance to check it out! We released a calendar for the new year! 30% of the proceeds go to a local nonprofit organization. December's proceeds went to Sunburst Youth Housing! If you're interested in getting your own calendar, contact FetishMenSanDiego@GMail.com or DoriamFMSD@GMail.com

II. Members Only BDSM Party - January 5, 2018

Join us on January 5th at House of Black, San Diego; we are kicking 2018 off with our first Male-Only Party of the year! This party will be co-hosted by Doriam and Rein, and while the theme lends itself to more SM-type play, all forms of Fetish and Kink are welcome! Including sex play, voyeur, water sports, etc.

As co-hosts, Doriam and Rein will be kicking off the night with an Interrogation Scene at 8:30! If you care to know more about these two, here's some info about each of them:

• Rein (right) will be celebrating his admissions in to college at this party. He is a Dominant with inclinations toward Sadomasochistic play including being trained to single-tail by Papa Tony, and has been active with FMSD since September 2017. 

• Never seen Doriam (left) play? He is a Switch who enjoys in-scene protocol. While playful, he is at his core an Edge Player best known for his experience with Rope Bondage and Suspension. He is celebrating his one year anniversary as part of the FMSD Leadership Team. 

We have reduced ticket prices for this party to $20. These funds will be used to pay for venue rental, snack foods, and non-alcoholic beverages. We've also made a few changes to our policies regarding alcoholic beverages - email DoriamFMSD@GMail.com if you'd like to know more.

Please see this post for more information on the benefits of volunteering, and Email: DoriamFMSD@GMail.com to register as a volunteer!

IV. From ME to YOU

I'm excited to begin this year with you all; we have plenty of events coming up and more in mind! If you have any time to spare, please consider volunteering and giving us a hand in producing these and future events! Because we are primarily a two-man show, it can become a bit cumbersome.

I am really looking forward to Friday evening! If you haven't purchased your ticket, please do so ASAP! See you then, Gents!

In Service,
Truly,
Doriam C
