Leather Retreat 2008: June 25-30, 2008 (Tentative)

Due to conflicts with other events, we are trying to move Leather Retreat back a week to June 25-30. We will know for certain by February 10, 2008

 

It's almost time to sign up for your Summer Vacation! The 11th Annual Leather Retreat is on and is going to be better than ever.

Girl in Rope SuspensionFor those of you who have never been to camp ... please read on.

For the past nine years, a big group of friends have had a blast hosting Leather Retreat. As you may know, LR is primarily a play event. Sure we have great special events and outstanding presenters giving great hands-on workshops, but LR is really about relaxing, making friends and playing ... a lot. Playing all day long. Playing before breakfast. Playing at the pool. Playing on a boulder next to the road on the way to the dining hall ... just because the moment felt right.

We hold Leather Retreat on a 200 acre retreat facility in Northern Maryland. The place started life as a kids summer camp but now hosts adult events, nudists, music festivals, special interest groups like the SCA and even the occasional band camp. Since we arent competing with the kids for prime time, Leather Retreat happens the last weekend of June after schools are out, graduation ceremonies are over and the weather has warmed up. It really is a summer vacation ... a BDSM vacation.

Unlike a big hotel event, the owners of our camp allow us to do just about anything (legal) we want, (safe, sane and consensual of course). The camp staff has been around this stuff for years so no one will be shocked or appalled by your scene. This is the big difference between our Winter/Spring Fire Event or a Black Rose hotel event and Leather Retreat. At camp we have freedom and privacy. We give up a cushy hotel room in exchange for being able to really live out our fantasies, unencumbered for six straight days!

Leather Retreat is an all inclusive vacation. We feed you three meals a day plus a midnight snack. You'll stay with a bunch of your friends (or make new ones) in one of our 40 cabins, each with real beds, full bathrooms and electricity for your marital aids. The big gym in converted into our main dungeon, the barn and pavilion into smaller themed play spaces. There are group grope rooms, the Pamporium, the fire pit and a great pool located at Headquarters, right in the center of camp. We even run a fleet of golf cart taxis, mainly because its fun to drive golf carts around, so sign up to drive the topless taxi.

About 70% of people return each year to Leather Retreat. But if you’re new, dont worry, everyone loves fresh meat. We welcome couples and singles alike and have lots of activities to help you break the ice. On your second day you'll fall into the routine and by the 3rd youll be helping (and checking out) the new arrivals. By the end of the week, you'll have made a ton of new friends and will be planning that big scene you want to do next year.

This is the best BDSM vacation of your life.
