And the Winner Is…
The Sixteenth SNOWBOUND Leather Weekend was held in Provincetown MA February 23-25 and by all accounts was a great success with 275+ leather folks in town to celebrate brotherhood and charity.
Three days of events described as “A Winter Getaway with a Twist” concluded with the announcement of Mr. SNOWBOUND 2024, “Mr.E” of Provincetown, MA, who brought in the most donations ($4,146.05) with his leather-themed photo submission. The seven contestants collectively raised $11,235.09 for AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod, the second largest amount raised in SNOWBOUND history. Handing off the Mr. SNOWBOUND sash was “FineLeatherJock”, Mr. SNOWBOUND 2023 of Boston, MA.
While there can be only one winner, it is equally important to applaud three additional contestants who brought in well over $1,000.00 each, an outstanding contribution. They are “Andy”, Sir Paul” and “Red Buoy”.
Jay Falcon, 2011/2012 Northeast Community Bootblack, 2012 International Community Bootblack 1st Runner-up and SNOWBOUND/Mates Leather Weekend Resident Bootblack was performing his services throughout the weekend.
Kudos to the folks who received the free health screenings, MPOX vaccines and NARCAN/Fentanyl info and supplies provided by ASGCC at their Drop-In Center located at 301 Commercial St. Their proactive approach towards their health and the health of your partners should be mirrored and lauded. Thanks to Brad Badgley and the ASGCC team for providing these important services. asgcc.org
