Game Day with ELSE! at SOMA Second Saturdays
ELSE is hosting munch with games – Mad Libs, Cards for Humanity, Magic, Cribbage, or whatever games the group decides on out of our selection. (Kinky mad libs are always lots of fun!)
Join us at SOMA Second Saturdays for two hours of games and conversation!
The ELSE area will have two tents, three tables and 12 chairs from 12pm to 2pm. Potluck-style, bring food/snacks (for everyone, or just for yourself) or just bring yourself! We’ll have some board games, card games, Mad Libs and other fun stuff to do!
For the two hours that the space is available to ELSE, we will also be welcoming people who are curious about ELSE and want more information about us, and our parties so this is a great opportunity to find out what ELSE is all about if you’ve never had a chance to meet and talk to any of us. ELSE members, this is also an event where you are welcome to bring cis plus ones.
SOMA Second Saturdays is SUPER kink-friendly so we will have a unique opportunity to talk about kink, and light play is allowed. The overall theme of this SOMA Second Saturdays is getting ready for LeatherWeek and Folsom Street Fair so you can also pick up some last minute gear for Folsom Street Fair!
