TES News and Meeting Reports
New Novice Group Facilitator
by Pete Mosq.
This was reported at the Board meeting last Wed. Due to Jeff's stepping down
to be on the Board, Lady Red had been in need of a CO-Facilitator for the
Novice Group. Master J (AKA Bo) has graciously volunteered for this
position. It was my pleasure to welcome him aboard. He is a great presenter
& will suit this job very well.
NCSF UPDATE:
PLEASE SIGN NCSF PETITION IN SUPPORT OF S/M EVENTS AT NATIONAL HOTELS
by Lisa V.
TES Representative to NCSF
The National
Coalition for Sexual Freedom Foundation (NCSFF) is circulating a
petition that urges Cendant Corporation to revoke a new policy that
threatens its hotel franchisees with reprisal if they book "controversial"
guests or groups that "national interest groups find offensive."
The Cedant Corpoation is the country's largest hotel franchiser
(Ramada, Howard Johnson, Days Inn, Super 8 Motel, Wingate Inn and
Travelodge) and has been the initial focus of pressure by religious
political extremists who are campaigning to shut down S/M events
nationwide.
The petition
asks Cendant to stop bending to the whims of religious political
extremists and to continue allowing consenting adults to use Cendant
hotels to meet, discuss, and educate other adults about alternative
sexual expression. NCSFF will deliver this petition to Cendant Corporation's
CEO Henry R. Silverman.
