On June 24-26, Arizona Power Exchange in Phoenix, AZ will host the Butchmanns Experience for a weekend Men’s Event. The Butchmanns Experience is an intensive educational weekend designed to provide an opportunity for self-discovery in pursuit of self-actualization. The event includes hands-on training in basic SM practices, protocol and rituals, and a view of leadership and obedience through the lens of Master/slave dynamics.

These activities are further explored through in-depth discussions. The environment is structured to encourage safely entering new experiences, with the instructors and staff supporting each individual’s unique experience.
This event is Men only and is open to all who are, or identify as, male.

There are a lot of bright spots in our leather community these days and San Diego is definitely high on that list. San Diego Leather Pride is a very visible (and hot!) example of the kind of exciting events happening there.
The Leather Pride week is anchored by the Ms San Diego Leather 2011 and the Mr San Diego Leather 2011. The Ms contest is in its 16th year and the Mr title is celebrating 29 years. The winners will work together and independently in the coming year as they represent their local community, both at home and across the nation.
Leather Pride events also include an All Club Night, a Meet and Greet, cocktail parties and victory brunches. Plus enough silent and live auction action to satisfy everybody!
Check out all of the photos here!

Here’s the latest on this year’s Wet ’n Hot in Palm Springs, CA - July 9 - 11, 2010!
They’ve now got over 240 pigs signed up for what promises to be the wettest weekend yet! They’re right on pace (if not a little ahead of the game) to equal or beat last year’s attendance of over 350!
There’s still time for you to sign up—and to get the early registration discount—but don’t delay! The registration price goes up by twenty-five bucks on June 1. If they receive your form after May 25, it may take a little longer than usual to get your confirmation. If it does, it’ll only be due to the last minute rush (and the fact that the entire Wet ’n Hot staff will be in Chicago creating mayhem at International Mr. Leather!).
Two of the six host hotels still have rooms available, but one is almost totally sold out and the other is filling up quickly. If you want to stay with the group, register today. Remember, rooms at Wet ’n Hot resorts are reserved exclusively for the men attending our weekend and you can’t reserve one until you’ve signed up!
You can get all of the details and download your registration form on our sexy new website, waterboys.com/wnh.
