"AWRRUUUUU!!!" - Pup Bandit

It's that time of year again! Where ghosts and ghouls come out to play; at least, that's what we tell the kids so they don't rot their teeth on candy! This year, FMSD and California Drummer have something special planned for you naughty freaks --

This is Halloween - Masques & Mischief


Join us for this Fetish Men Takeover of the San Diego Eagle as we partner with California Drummerboy 2017, Erik Thomas, and host Beat Your Drum - This is Halloween! Pup Bandit (aka Doriam!) will be your Host Pup for this evening of Kinky, Fetishy, Freaky Fun! The Eagle will be running Drink Specials all evening, and you're encouraged to wear your Hottest, Raunchiest, Scariest Fetish Gear this evening for a chance to win the "This is Halloween Costume Contest." The Costume Contest will be held at Midnight on the stage, sign up with Pup Bandit for your chance to win! California Drummer will also be running a silent auction in support of Erik's travel fund, so be sure to make it in before Midnight for your chance to add these to your Trick-or-Treat Bag!

"But, Doriam!! What's FMSD doing!?"

Great question floating head! Fetish Men San Diego is hosting the Masques & Mischief portion of the evenin' starting at 9PM! Masques and Mischief is a night of Masked Men, Kinksters and Cruisers, coming out and starting trouble having fun! Inside the bar, if you aren't already in a mask, you can donate* any amount to Fetish Men San Diego and receive a mask of your very own! Because let's be honest, there is something HOT about a Man in a Mask. But wait! There's MORE!

Pup Bandit will be wandering around, carrying his Doggy Bag of Tricks & Treats! What's in Bandit's Sack? You'll just have to reach in and find out! Don't miss this FMSD Takeover!

You've asked for a Monthly Discussion group and we're bringing it to you! Join us for the first reincarnation of the Fetish Men San Diego discussion group - Fetish Show & Tell. This early evening discussion will give those of us sticking around during Palms Springs Leather Pride weekend a chance to catch up and talk about our commonalities - the things that turn us on.

Discussion will be lead by two of our Brothers, and will give each person the opportunity to talk about the thing that turns them on. From cigars and fire, to role play and water sports, this is an open table discussion for you to talk about that special something that just does it for you! If you are so inclined, bring something to show the group that represents your fetish! Bring a friend and introduce them to FMSD, the more the merrier!

If there is enough interest, members are welcome to bring food to share with the group or a small donation to order food for our brothers to enjoy during the discussion!

IV. From ME to YOU


Howdy Gents! If you haven't seen already, we have finally released our new Volunteer Program which has been modeled after the volunteer systems of many of the clubs in San Diego. We have modified to suit OUR needs, and also worked it in such a way that it benefits YOU for your service to FMSD. If you haven't had the chance to look over it, please take a moment and do so!

I am also very happy to announce that we are now scheduling out the next year's worth of events, and securing more and more venues as we go! With the first year of my leadership of Fetish Men San Diego wrapping up, I can honestly say that this club has done so much good for me that I can't thank you, my brothers, enough! Had it not been for you, and for the support, trust, and friendship you've bestowed in me to this point, I don't know that I could have done this all!

So thank you. Thank you a hundred times over, for supporting me when I fumbled and when I charged. I hope for your continued support as we wrap up this year and move in to the next! We have a lot of great classes, workshops, events and discussions planned, and everything just becomes more and more real the more you are involved! With that, I will wrap this up and look forward to seeing you all at Masques & Mischief on Friday Night!

In Service,
Doriam C
