Wednesday'sRose said:
I'm really interested but I need to know about the hotel rates first. And is there any idea exactly when in the spring it will be? Thanks and it sounds like a lot of fun!
the rooms will be 59.99 per night and that includes a free breakfast bar. all rooms have a full kitchen as well and most are two room suites.


The positive dates are from April 7 - April 11 with the actual events starting on Fri. April 8.

Nows as good a time as any whats TN's take on Drinking age and Adult content ages and such??? Who knows we might plan one over there next.


Well... My suggestion would be KNoxville...For which you would want to consult Winston.

My other suggestion, would be to avoid the smaller municipalities like the black death...

I don't know Winston at all

I've got a friend who lives in Kville though and the problem there is finding a hotel that would work with us and meet our needs. She's actually looked around at a few and the accomidations have either been unsuitable or too expensive. If Winston could give us a idea or two of a good hotel with an open minded manager and a good sized hospitality suite that would be great.

Because you were answering my question...

I'd love to be there and it sounds like you guys got one hell of a deal, but unfortunately I will be one year shy of the age limit in April. It sucks but that's how it goes. I was really looking forward to it too.

I checked and the age for Drinking in TN is the same as NC thats the main reason for the age requirement on the litogethers. WE cant be responsable for watching and making sure they do not consume. And both states hold the party organizers responsable. It wouldn't be fair to ask anyone to not enjoy their weekend because they have to watch the under aged people. And believe me when I say that they do watch us like a hawk.

I hate that but maybe next year.

Well..As far as that goes..to the best of my understanding..The drinking age is 21 everywhere in the U.S. now..
And in a "non-club" venue the person that actually serves the alchohol is responsible for ascertaining age...
Or, as you said, in the case of a private party, the party organizer..
As for Tennessee; Hmm .. Problems that relate to BDSM events lie in the definition of "public" and "private" areas..And activities that are legal within public areas.
I just went through a long conversation with someone who was talking up the opening of a "fetish" related club. In Johnson City of all places.
Looking at the section on "private clubs" can be illuminating.

Yeah but if its like NC that requires getting special Licenses and those are usually hard to come by.

*grin* Doesn't work anyway - By TN legal definition a "Private" club, is a public place.
And amongst the things "Thou Shalt Not Do" in public venues..is most all of BDSM.

ok, ok......


There will be 5, count them 5 BDSM related events.

3 Workshops, 2 Socials

Workshop: Starting With Rope

This will be an introductory hands on workshop on rope bondage. The audience for this class is very wide from vanilla kink to bedroom bondage to lifestyle BDSM to those who are just curious.

Workshop: Rope - Advanced Topic (topic TBA)

This class might have a slightly less wide appeal than the introductory since its an advanced topic but I think those interested in casual bondage owe it to themselves to see what else can be done and consider what else they might want to try.

There is an instructor lined up right now. I'm not announcing names since I don't want to unfairly commit him until he can verify his schedule but if it does work out he will be excellent. He is a well known member of the local community, very good at what he does, very knowledgable and a good instructor. And a pretty nice guy too.

Workshop: Hands on Spanking
Taught by, Me

This one will be fun with lots of audience participation. I'm hoping to get a standing ovation from half the class (since it will be too tender to sit). ;)

Last year Master Rickford gave us a wonderful overview of percussive play. I will instead be focusing on the use of the hand as an instrument and the kinds of scenes you can build as well as safety concerns. This is a class for tops and bottoms and for a very wide audience from vanilla kink to lifestyle BDSM.

The other two events......

Social Luncheon

This will be a BYOBB (bring your own brown bag) luncheon. The purpose is to grab grub between workshops and be sociable. The gregarious are encouraged. Bring your questions, thoughts, stimulation from workshops. If you're curious, bring your questions about the lifetyle. If you're new to the lifestyle and want to know what this wierd fetish you heard about was, bring that. If you're new to Lit, meet your favorite perverts. If you're just hungover and in the wrong room - well, we might scare you, but come on anyway. :D

Movie Pajama Party

We will Thursday night have a pajama party / movie for the early arrivals. We will be showing a kink interest movie. The actual title will be a surprise. This time I've chosen a non-adult movie (at least in the porn sense) and is sure to spark conversation.


Oh..... and who knows what kind of play might spontaneously happen in the party room or in private? :devil:
