lobolanceThe Alameda County Leather Corps 11th anniversary dinner two weekends ago was a lot of fun. It was held at the Turf Club, dinner being out of doors. Which was quite unexpected, but fortunately I had a hat to don, and it really wasn't that cold. The place was pretty full during the main part of the proceedings, and it was a friendly crowd. I also got a couple of Leather Weekend details ironed out, another plus.
There were about ten SCCLA members there, sitting in a couple of groups, some not so active folks as well. That was cool. Kroche![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kroche got an honorary ACLC membership, which was nifty. At the very end of the evening they made space for announcements, so I went up and plugged SCCLA's upcoming leather weekend (Nov. 4-6).
As has happened before, I was really impressed with all of the awards and acknowledgments ACLC gives out. It is a very warm and kind thing to do. I am debating whether to just do the expanded thank-yous I'd already planned on at our Meet and Greet (Renegades, 9pm, Nov. 4) or try and hand out certificates. Time is short, but it would be cool...
This past weekend was SCCLA's Trash or Treasure, which is a leather/BDSM rummage sale. We held it outside of LeatherMasters, which worked out pretty well. It got more folks into the store, and more browsers to us. Only a few of us sold, butevilmommytina had tons of stuff, so we still looked pretty good! I sold some stuff, gave some away, and got donations from others for SCCLA prizes. yea!
One of the best parts of Trash or Treasure was just that it was low-key, social, relaxing. Lots of leather friends stopped by, even Andybovil on his motorycle :-). It was all a no-pressure chance to chill with friends (which I really needed at the time). :-)
