Hi, everyone! This email confirms the date for FOLSOM STREET FAIR 2012:
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2012
(which means SF Leather Week would start on Sunday, September 16th)

We will be posting the news on our website and on our facebook page. We'll
be emailing it out and drafting/distributing a SAVE THE DATE palm card.
Please let everyone know. Thanks!

> Normally, the Folsom Street Fair is held on the last weekend in September.
> However, in 2012, that weekend is the same as Oracle Open World. We 
> have received word from our partners in the hotel industry that many 
> of the city's hotels are already completely sold out for that weekend. 
> We are in discussions with the City about moving Folsom Street Fair to 
> Sunday, September 23, 2012. This change would mean that SF Leather 
> Week would start on Sunday, September 16, 2012. It looks very likely 
> that this move will happen; however, we will not know for sure until 
> the City approves our request on Thursday, December 15th at the ISCOTT 
> hearing. We will keep you updated as more information is available. We 
> apologize in advance for any inconvenience that this change may cause. 
> Please pass the word along to your friends and fellow community members.
>
> Also, if you haven't heard, there is growing grassroots community 
> support to help protect 11th Street as a Special Use District (SUD) - 
> within the context of the soon-to-be-approved Western SOMA Community 
> Plan. If you're interested in what this recommendation and potential 
> change means, there is a meeting at BEATBOX on WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 
> 14th at 6pm. Hope you can make it!
