Our Titleholders: Ms. ACLC 2008
When my partner and I would go out, it always seemed to be when ACLC was having an event at the bar. I really enjoyed the events we attended, and liked the fact that they were raising money for local charities.
After attending a few of events and meeting some ACLC members, I talked my partner into joining. She was a little reluctant at first, because she felt she had nothing in common with “them people”. I told her “Sure, you do! You like to have a good time, right?”
Reluctantly she agreed, and we joined Alameda County Leather Corps. That was 4 years ago. My first year as a member I was elected Vice President! I had no idea what to do at first, but it turned out to be pretty easy job. In fact, being Vice President was so easy that I deiced to do it again this year!
In addition to holding a Board position, I've also been the Chair for Events Committee for several years. This past March, I produced my first event: “Leather Elegance.” I was told it turned out to be a pretty good event; unfortunately, I became sick and don’t remember much of that weekend.
The past four years have been wonderful! I've met many great people and friends, and helped raise money for charity. All of this led me to running for Ms Alameda County Leather 2008.
Running for title this year just felt right. I'm in the right place in my life to serve the community. I promised during the contest that if elected, I'd give 120% of myself to make it the best year possible ... and I'm doing just that!
Thank you.
