COMMUNITY SURVEY
We are continuing to conduct our survey to learn more about individuals who engage with RMLA. It is very important to us that we hear feedback from the community about how we can better support them.
If you have not already, please take a moment to fill out our community survey. This survey will take between five and ten minutes to complete, and will continue to help us refine our mission for the upcoming year.
The survey can be found here: https://forms.gle/C2kSmx8Sz3PMdK8w9.

CALLS FOR INVOLVEMENT
We are always looking for kink/fetish skill performers (e.g. flogging, electro, bondage; tops or bottoms) for demos or tastings. If you’re interested in helping out with a Rough Play, please email us at board@rockymountainleather.org.
If you are interested in helping drive the direction of RMLA, or would like to voice your opinion, please reach out to us at board@rockymountainleather.org.
If you have your own organization you want to start or build up which will build cohesion and community in the Leather, BDSM, kink, and/or fetish communities in the Rocky Mountain region, please reach out to us — we’d love to see how we can help. We love to bring new programs to the area for any demographic, but we can’t do it alone.
Thanks,
