V: From ME to YOU

My thanks to Doriam Couto for his tireless efforts on behalf of FMSD.  With his Mr. San Diego Leather 2018 title travels keeping him even busier than before he asked for someone to help keep our blog current.  It is my goal to get something out about every two weeks.

Our workshops have been dark while we are between meeting venues.  Tom's Place is presently rented out, and the farther recent venue just didn't work out.  If you have ideas or leads, please let Doriam, Scott, Papa Tony or me know.

In uniform,
Officer Wes

Looking for Volunteers

Howdy Gentleman! This is a shorter post, but please look forward to a longer one (as per usual) later this week!

With Desire coming to a close, the folks over at the compound could use some help unloading the dungeon equipment. If you're available, please reach out for the address. They'll be arriving around 2:30 and will provide dinner. (Plus! They were our generous hosts for this weekends party!)

I (Doriam) am looking for someone to take over keeping the blog current. The schedule of events is put together pretty well in advance, but with the limited time we on the Leadership team have between travel, work, family and such we've let the blog slip through our fingers.

If you are interested in helping Me/Us with the blog, please reach out to me directly at DoriamFMSD@GMail.com

Thank you!

In Service,
Doriam C
