Hello everyone, We need your support to keep this awesome venue as a meeting spot for our group. I am hoping we can make the TREE HOUSE our "Home Base" and the one solid spot we can always count on to meet up and play at, but to do this we need you to support out efforts. You've heard the saying "Use it or loose it". Well this could be the situation if the people that have signed on to our fun group don't start supporting our events. It's that simple. The owners of the Venue (Tree House) love our group and like to suppport the LGBTQ community but they can't keep holding open a prime Saturday night for us if we don't show support and get more people to come out and party with us. So far we have gotten nothing but rave reviews from our guests who have come out to the TREE HOUSE. I do my best as your party host and coordinator to go out and scout out great venues to host parties at. I try to find venues that allow us to get naked and openly play. That my friends is NOT an easy task. Private homes do seem to be easier than commercial venues...with lisences and permits and all that legal stuff. I also want them as convenient to get to as possible. I have found venues north , south and east of Washington DC and all are about the same distance out. But the Tree House is about as easy to get to as possible, it is a combo of professional venue and home as they have taken a very nice, 5 level, luxury home in a very nice gated community and converted it into a regular play space designed specifically for our type of party. That being understood, this means they have higher opperating cost, they have to rent vehicles to shuttle guest in and out to a designated meeting spot and hire drivers. They do supply everything you need including drinks and snacks...you supply the booze as it is BYOB. They have the coolest glory hole system you've ever seen. But on average we have gotten maybe 25 to 30 people to comeout. Now for a typical house party that's not so bad but for this event it just isn't enough to cover the coast we incur to host a party. And that is the next aspect. I have always tried to keep my party fees very low and reasonable. The bi community especially the bi men, are the most ignored segment of the lifestyle society. They aren't readily accepted at straight swing parties or clubs and the gay scene is an outlet but not always designed for us either. I honestly try to target our married bi population to give them a fun safe outlet that both partners can enjoy together or the individual and they can feel good about it. Gay clubs seem to resent women folk at times. So this (bi-weekly parties) becomes a great way to enjoy your bi side in a safe, fun, playful environment. So unless we raise our prices considerably, to need more people to attend and it's that simple. So come on my friends. You like our group, always have fun at the parties, let's just get more of you out at a time to make this a worthshile venture. I am telling you, if you have not yet been to the TREE HOUSE you need to come out and see this place for yourself. Everyone so far has loved this place. You need to see why it's the new hot spot. I don't know what else to say, I'm not going to beg you so I am hoping this appeal does the trick. I've been trying to average 2 parties a month. |
