Reading over this and the responses gave me a thought.  I do happen to own a small civic center in SW Virginia... and being the sole owner I can book anything I like there.  Its in the Blacksburg area.  Now I would not know the first thing about organizing such an event, but if someone else were interested in doing so, I'd be willing to work with them.  Depending on how many decided to turn out, I might be able to get some discount rates with local hotels and such.

The one catch is this is a conservative area, so the event would have to be closed to the public, strictly monitored to keep it private, and advertising would have to be done either through sites like this or through area munch groups (of which I'm not presently involved in any of them so have no contacts there).

Anyone interested?

Thanks for responding the.dark.  (As always, My regards to Darcy.)

No, the rules of the event aren't rigid.  We have monogamous, non play couples come along, too.  We have one M/s couple who basically come for the reasons given above.  He likes to play poker, she only serves him.  Still, it gives him a chance at cards and she socializes with the other house servants in the early evening.  He tends to give his play money away during the auction part.  (He does sit in on the auction, to watch the bidding and help others trying to make certain purchases.)  They do stay through the play portion, even if it's just to talk with others.

Jeff, it's good to see you posting again.  (My regards to Carol.)  What?  Married people can't like blackjack?

No, but our group is a bit small, considering the size of the city.  Nothing like the numbers in Atlanta.

You have no idea how much a place like that in SE Virginia would thrive!.... We have zero around here and its a big area population wise.

I had this up earlier in the thread, but it might have been missed since I was replying to Des.

We have done charity events that have been for real money.  I've participated as both auctioneer, as well as be auctioned off as a Top for various causes.  (I'm kind of a soft touch for that kind of thing.)  We haven't done one specifically for DVIS, but we have held events that directly benefited the American Cancer Society, National Leather Angel's Fund, and the Shriner's Hospital, to name a few.

The idea for the fake money for this one is more for the fun of the gambling portion of the evening.   What I should have also added was that it also gives the Tops an even break.  Every Top gets a certain amount of fake cash at the beginning, to give all something of the same chance, not just the one with the biggest checkbook.

What kind of Troll do you think I am?

If I don't have honies with money I can't afford to play.

SLURP!

P.S. Any honies with money need a... somewhat... charming sponge?

P.P.S. I think it is wonderful that you and yours are doing charity work... kinda softens the blow to the community eh?

Padriag, I can't say that I know anything about your area, or the groups near it.  What I can tell you is, a lot of munch groups would practically kill to have the opportunity that you just threw out there.  If that building were in GA, I'd be doing whatever was in My power to be your new best friend.  If I weren't moving in a couple of months, you'd have Me for such a project in person.

I Wonder what monogamous couples (above) think solo subs do for fun.

Geez, we aren't prepacked into a monogamous relationship at birth.

I would be interested in attending if you should have an auction. If there is one somewhere else that someone can give me details on, I would like to know that too.
