Additional events will be added soon, so you can expect a full week-long celebration of the leather lifestyle. The 2014 event was a huge success, resulting in significant donations to charity beneficiaries. The 2015 committee expects to out-do those results, and are pulling out all the stops to create a fantastic event week that everyone will want to be part of.
