I want to take a moment and express my sincere sadness of the passing last week
of the founder of the DC Boys of Leather Ray Hall. Because of the work that Ray
did, 27 Boys of Leather Clubs were founded across the country, including Denver.

Boys lived in an entirely different world before the Boys of Leather Clubs. We
did not judge contests, were often told not to speak and many misunderstood the
daddy and boy relationship. Everything we enjoy with our BOL clubs can be traced
back to Ray.

I hope we can all takea moment and send a note to the DC Boys of leather and
thank Ray Hall for his vision.

details are finalized. Please forward this information to all interested parties
