Polyamorous Lupercalia party: Feb 16, UC Berkeley

We are having our 9th annual Polyamorous Lupercalia Party, which will be happening SATURDAY, February 16, in Berkeley, California, beginning at 7 PM, going until 11 PM or so.

**********************************************************
NOTICE THAT THIS IS A MORE EXPENSIVE EVENT THAN USUAL!!

THE COST IS $14 per person. This is because we are renting space at the University of California Berkeley Conference Center this time. It gives us more space to work with than doing in in just my living room, but it costs some bucks to do this - so we have to charge participants.

However, note that the fee includes food!

Cost is $14 if you pay by Paypal in advance, $20 at the door - on a space available basis.

Notice also that you have to actually RSVP AND register for this event with Dave at :

dr_dave_doleshal@yahoo.com

You have to actually register AND pay to reserve a spot. You can't just click on a button on MEETUP, Fetlife or Bozo.com and think that reserves you a spot!

THIS is an affiliated event connected with the International Polyamory Conference that is happening at this same place Feb 15-17. However, the party is a distinct event from the Conference. You don't have to go to the Conference to attend the party, but anyone who registers for the conference can attend the party at no extra charge.

We plan to have at least one professional exotic dancer. [Notice that since we are operating with the highly conservative environment of the University Campus, the dancers CANNOT be completely nude like they usually when we do this at other locations, but they will be HOT!

(We might end up with more pro dancers, but so far, just one is confirmed). We also plan to have a poly dance session in which all interested attendees are encouraged to participate. This involves dancing together in configurations that include not just a couple, but with three or more individuals simultaneously - great fun!

We will have to limit the number of single males, but other configurations are still wide open. (Note that gay couples are counted as couples, not as two single men).

We shall also do the traditional Lupercalia "bestowing of horns" ceremony, during which those wishing to do so my ceremonially place the "horns of Pan" upon their heads, thus "magically" proclaiming their commitment to poly-ness to the universe, the assembled crowd, thier our subconscious mind, or at least to anyone interested in listerning.

We shall of course have the traditional Lupercalia cake. (We'll have to make it from scratch, since nobody in this town will sell me a professionally made Lupercalia Cake. (You'd be surprised at the dumb looks I STILL get from the bakery shops around here every year when I try to order one of these - but never fear, we will have one - one way or ta other!)

Looking good for at least one or two pro- massueses for the ladies, but its still under disussion whether we'll have one, two or three tables going at once. Massage is respectful and gentle, and person receiving it
decides what regions of the body are to be massaged and how. (So far, this offer only extends to female attendees. Any one interested in massaging MALE attendees, please do let me know).

Still not enough volunteers to receive a (semi-public) traditional Lupercalia spanking. (Remember, you can't RECEIVE a spanking unless you APPLY for for one - AND have your application accepted by show time. (You need to have been REALLY NAUGHTY this year to earn one. So ladies, get those applications filed right away!!
Structured puppy scheduled to begin at 10:15 PM, completely safe environment, G-rated - participation on a strictly voluntary basis only.

We will need to see valid PHOTO ID for ALL PERSONS who attend, especially those who are attending for the first time, and especially single males and those not personally known by me. Sorry to have to do this, but is it a security measure insisted upon by our lawyer. We need the ID for everybody.

This is NOT a kid-friendly event. No one under 18 years of age will be
permitted.

We need 2 more people to help with set-up for a couple hours
before the party, roughly 4 PM to 6:30 on Saturday FEB 16.

Directions and location will be emailed to those who RVSP:
MORE DETAILS WILL FOLLOW.

RSVP to: dr_dave_doleshal@yahoo.com

Hope to see Yah'all on February 16!!
