One room(left) for rent in lovely Dyke House in San Leandro available now!

— admin @ 3:30 pm

Hello my dear Sapphic Sisters:

Wanted to let any or all of you know that we have one room left to rent in our safe, friendly and lovely home in a nice area of San Leandro. Rent is very reasonable at $650 per month …one of the reasons is that renter will be expected to help owner with the sorting and clearing out of personal items..that would require about three to four hours per week for about two months or so. So please be neat and tidy and have some time on your hands.Please also be employed and no drugs,. alcohol or any illegal substances. The shared utilities are a very fair $50 per month too. No pets. Please be a dyke who appreciates a great value and “plays well with others”. This will be a six month lease that will be renewable! Drop me a note and tell me about yourself . THere is also a lovey garden , private backyard with four fruit trees and roses so if you love nature this would befit you too. The neighbors are ALL lesbian friendly! Not a bad deal. Linda Zeiser, Producer of women’s artistic events in the Bay Area

Help needed this week at Edges - 6/30/08 - 7/5/08

— admin @ 3:15 pm

From Ali:
Phew, we did it! Super hugs to those of you with the strong backs, tireless smiles, and fooood (thank you sustenance goddesses). That was a superb weekend of kinky warriors that really made an awesome effort in taking time to ensure their dungeon Edges and smOdyssey were all moved. We’ve got lots of folks that are now dirty inside AND out. And are actively working to keep that theme going. THANK YOU to each and every person that shared their time with us. This will be a continued effort and we need your help in keeping momentum and energy at a high level: if you cannot come out, encourage someone whom can!
I’ve updated the next weeks calendar for times and day, but do be sure to check or at least call us if there is any doubt. Often we start earlier or end later than expected.
