dreams come true

A couple of Sundays past I wrote here about a phone call I'd received that had in it's brief couple of minutes of communication changed my life and activism.

This is what's had me feeling so proud & strong as of late...


For Immediate Release:

New LLC Board Members Elected

The Leather Leadership Conference is an organization dedicated to strengthening the SM/Leather/Fetish community through the development of the leadership skills of community members and fostering a greater sense of connection between and within community groups.

The LLC Board of Directors is composed of nine members and to maintain leadership and continuity, their terms expire on a rotating basis. In recently concluded annual elections, four new members were elected to the LLC Board of Directors.

New members who were elected for 3-year terms are: Jennifer Skrukwa, a sex-activist from Vancouver BC, Canada; Jared Keen, a leather-activist from Arizona; and Alan Levy, an attorney from New Jersey. Jonathan Krall, a sex-positive community organizer from Virginia was elected to a 1-year term. New board positions commence July 1, 2006.

The LLC Board would like to thank Cynthia Wright, Lolita Wolf and Libby Warren, whose terms have now expired, for their years of dedication that served to help shape LLC, Inc. to where it is today.

Join us for LLC-XI in Minneapolis, MN April 20 - 22, 2007
Visit Leather Leadership for more information.



I leave for Minneapolis the first weekend in August to meet with the Local Organizing Committee for LLC in April and for our Annual Meeting. This is already turning into a wild ride.

It's humbling to be part of the very place that works to strengthen community and fostering a better understanding of each segment within it for all. To be elected, wow, this is an activists dream and I'm living it. Go me!!!
