The regular "Third Thursday" munch and play is Thursday night, October 20th, 2005. This munch is followed by an evening of dungeon play at the infamous Power Exchange (PE). We have a critical mass of leather folks to make our own community within PE, and so have a fun evening. The munch part allows people to relax first and get to know each other, as well as to wind down from the day.

Those who don’t like the usual energy at PE will find this event refreshing. There is no pressure to play, and everyone feels safe. Singles, couples, and groups all welcome.

Munch RSVPs requested so we can better advise the restaurant how many tables to set aside. Email edukink@yahoo.com with "RSVP" in the subject line. But if you can’t rsvp, come along anyway. We’re at the tables farthest from the front door.

You may come to either the munch, or the party, or both. People who attend the munch usually have dinner, but it’s ok to just have a snack or beverage, or just chat. The restaurant knows we’re kinky, and likes us. You may wear leather, fetish or vanilla.

We aim to be welcoming. This event attracts and welcomes all genders, orientations and play styles. We attract a mix of bdsm, poly, leather, fetish, goth, gender, kinky, exhibitionist, voyeur, and other folks. We have many regulars, plus new people every time. Some people bring toy bags, some don’t. We get a wide range of ages, races, backgrounds, and outlooks; we celebrate diversity. 18 and over only.

At 9 pm we walk from the restaurant, gather in front of PE, and enter as a group. If you enter before or after our one group, you won’t get the discount. Don’t ask them for it, you’ll just ruin it for everyone. Usually all our party gets in free. Sometimes a few single males pay a discounted rate.

It’s one block between the restaurant and dungeon. Most people park in front of PE, then walk to and from the restaurant. Note that there have been car break-ins in this area, so don’t leave anything visible or valuable in a vehicle.

Once inside PE, we usually take over the two largest spaces in the basement. Most of our party stays together, but you’re welcome to explore or play anywhere. Some people start playing immediately, others continue socializing. It’s a warm, relaxed evening, where we create our own energy. There is plenty of flirting, sharing tips, co-topping, group play, and other frolics. Some do pickup play, some only play with their partner, some don’t play in public. Some of us must leave by 11 pm, others stay way past midnight. We often have the whole place to ourselves for the first hour or two.

We discourage heavy cruising, which would drive people away. It’s ok to express an interest in playing with someone. Once only. Then let them get back to you if they’re interested.

Members of our group who are "coupled-up" enter the Power Exchange for free. We would prefer that you join us for dinner first, which is the best time to pair up "boy-girl". This gender balancing is only for purposes of entering PE.

Public transit: From Civic Center BART at Eighth, walk west on Market then left on South Van Ness. Or by MUNI: 1 block south of the Van Ness Muni underground station, accessible from any Muni streetcar. Or the 14 Mission, 42 Loop 49 and 47 Van Ness buses stop at Mission and 11th Street.
