Summer CV: Finale

Apologizes to all for the delay of posts. Join us again at the Malibu diner as we bid farewell to what I hope has been an amazing summer for everyone, and for the last installment of Summer CV this year! After this, we will return to our regularly scheduled meetings, the first of which will be held on September 15^th.

Malibu Diner: 163 W 23^rd St, between 6^th and 7^th Ave.

Summer CV relocates this week

For this week only, Summer CV will be relocating to the Moonstruck Diner, because another group will be having a vanilla munch there. The Moonstruck Diner is at
400 W 23^rd St, on the corner of 9^th Ave. and 23^rd St. Tell everyone you know!

Summer CV: August

It’s finally August, which means one more month until the school year begins (along with our regularly scheduled meetings). This week, Summer CV will be at the Malibu Diner as usual. However, please remember that for the next week only (August 11), we will be at the Moonstruck Diner. Anyone can come to Summer CV, so please don’t hesitate to do so!

The Malibu Diner is at 163 W 23^rd St, between 6^th and 7^th Ave.

Just can’t get enough Summer CV

If you’re anything like me, Monday is the best weekday ever ;)

Since it’s not the second week of the month, Summer CV will be held at Malibu Diner once again. Come!

163 W 23^rd St, between 6^th and 7^th Ave.

Summer CV is still at Malibu Diner

Apologizes for the confusion regarding the location of our munch last week. Apparently, a photography group meets on the second Monday of each month, and they have been meeting there for a while. So, we relocated to the Moonstruck diner on 9^th Ave., two blocks directly west of Malibu diner. It’ll likely be our alternate diner in case we need to relocate again for whatever reason (and we’ll probably go there again on August 11).

I love meeting new people, and it seems like I have every time! If you haven’t come yet, we encourage you to release your inhibitions!

163 W 23^rd St, between 6^th and 7^th Ave.

Summer CV continues

Summer CV continues to be thrilling and awesome!

As always, join us at the Malibu Diner for an evening with great company.

163 W 23^rd St, between 6^th and 7^th Ave.

Summer CV: Happy 4th of July!

It’s July, and of course, American Independence Day is coming! Hooray for long weekends!

Join us right after the weekend to hang out, or if applicable, share stories of wild kinky sex.

And try the eggs benedict, they’re delicious!

NYC Gay Pride 2008

Come march in the Heritage of Pride Parade (formerly known as the Gay Pride Parade) this Sunday, June 29^th, starting at noon! The march is from 5^th Ave. & 52^nd St. to Christopher & Greenwich St.

From the Heritage of Pride website:

The March began as an annual civil rights demonstration beginning the year after the Stonewall Riots in 1970. Over the years its purpose has broadened to include recognition of the fight against AIDS and to remember those we have lost to the illness, violence and neglect. It has also evolved to include being a celebration of our lives and our community.

Summer CV: Leather Pride Weekend!

It’s Leather Pride Weekend in the city! Among other things, the 25^th Annual Leather Pride Night is on Saturday, and the Folsom Street East street fair is on Sunday. Come join us on the upcoming Monday at 8 PM for another Summer CV munch, in the back of the Malibu Diner, at 163 W 23^rd St, between 6^th and 7^th Ave.

The previous turnout was great, and I hope to see you all again! And of course, newcomers are highly welcome to come! ;)

Folsom Street East XII

Folsom Street East is coming this Sunday! From the Folsom Street East website:

Folsom Street East, New York’s premiere s/m-leather-fetish themed street festival, will hit the streets of Manhattan from 2 to 8pm on June 22. Produced by Gay Male S/M Activists (GMSMA), Folsom Street East is the largest outdoor event of its kind on the East Coast, attracting nearly 10,000 visitors. Folsom Street East takes place in New York City on West 28th Street, between 10th & 11th Avenues.

Performances already scheduled this year will feature indie rocker Bob Mould, Sylvia Tosun, Fredrick Ford, Trai La Trash, and The Imperial Court. Porn producer extraordinaire Chi Chi LaRue will serve as emcee.

The street will once again be lined with some 50 community groups and vendors that appeal to the LGBT and the kink communities. A one-stop shop for leather gear, porn, and toys. And no throw pillow, magic mops, or tube socks – promise!

And given that this is all part of leather pride weekend, check out the other events section and see what other filthy fun is in store.

Suggested donation is $10.

Some background information about Folsom Street East from their website:

GMSMA held the first Folsom Street East in 1997. Named after the famous Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco, the block party was an instant success, bringing our S/M-Leather-Fetish brothers and sisters together for a great celebration, while raising money to support worthy causes. Over the past 11 years, the success of FSE has enabled GMSMA to donate more than $250,000 to support organizations such as The LGBT Community Center, the NYC Gay & Lesbian Anti-Violence Project (AVP), and the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF).
