It’s a busy time at the CSPC!

Following up on the sell-out of both The Frolic in August and September’s Myself! Party, we have three in-person events planned during the next month or so.

Myself! comes again (and again) on Sunday, October 24th, continuing its victorious run as the CSPC’s most long-lived active party. The energy at the last Myself! was fantastic, and we’re looking forward to doing it all again with you.

On Friday, November 5th, we’ll see the return of Fresh Meet, our party that is all about meeting and connecting, building community, and trying new experiences. Popular with new and experienced members alike, Fresh Meet features ice-breaker activities and tastings to help people connect and broaden their horizons.

And on Saturday, November 13th, we’ll see the long-awaited return of the LaQueer Party! A sex-positive party created by and for people in the LGBTQIA+ community, LaQueer is as unique and diverse as the individuals who attend. Come have fun and play with us!

While doing our best to help the sex-positive community create events and opportunities to connect, we at the CSPC remain focused on safety and consent. In addition to Washington state’s requirement of masks at indoor events (at all times when not eating, drinking, or engaging in a scene), we’re requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination for all persons at all of our events.

We’re also limiting the size of all in-person parties to a maximum of 100 tickets sold. Volunteer staff is in addition to this, but on average we expect to have fewer than 100 people in the building at any given time (staff come in multiple shifts, some number of ticket holders end up unable to attend, etc.). We’re also experimenting with ways for attendees to flag their availability/willingness for closer contact.

It’s an exciting time with in-person events returning after a long hiatus, and even more in the works. We also recognize that meeting in person isn’t realistic for everyone just yet, and we’re continuing to offer orientations, munches, discussion groups, and other events online.

We’re doing our best to ensure that everybody in the community has a place here that matches their comfort level. As an attendee or volunteer, at events in person or online, come and join us! Help us build the community you want to see.
