Hump History Year Six: Rolling That Hard Six

by Teeebone

In 2013, the Hump marked its sixth year at the Center. It is also important to note that the Annex (and later the RAW Dungeon) had been in use by the CSPC for about the same length of time. This extra space allowed the Center to hold two events per night almost every day, and as the membership grew, so did the demand for volunteers to staff the parties, old and new alike. Even an event as basic as a weekday sex-focused party needs capable staff to run safely and smoothly.

During this year, there were a few challenges that had to be dealt with involving prompting staff to stay on focus with their duties rather than behave like they were an attendee at the party. Most of them owned up to it when the issue was brought up, and a “teachable” moment was experienced by all. Staying in the game and learning from your mistakes is the key when it comes to being a good volunteer at the CSPC.

In May, the Hump launched a “Porn Drive” to put together a porn DVD library for the party. Up till then, we would need to go to the CSPC Library and check out some DVDs to play in the Solo Space. Putting together our own event library helped save time on setup. All told, we received 38 porn DVDs from our generous members!

In June, we celebrated the CSPC’s Fourteenth birthday with a Hump and a Whump! Some of the highlights:  A suspension / naked cake platter scene, a birthday spanking (or was it two or three?) and a high level of attendance (80+ members on a Wednesday night!) that promptly adjourned to the RAW Dungeon or back room after 8pm. Truly an epic event.

Tragedy struck in September however, when it was discovered during setup that our beloved mascot Humphrey was shattered in his storage tote. All seemed lost, but then somebody from the Hump crew took our broken friend home, and with a whole lot of love and glue, they managed to restore Humphrey back to his humpy camel self.

In December, the year ended with the annual Xmas Potluck combined with the Hump. For this night only, admission was a suggested donation of $10. So... an attendee could either: Donate $10, bring a food item, donate $10 AND bring a food item or just bring themselves. Amazingly, the donations were as generous as the spread for the potluck: A complete roasted turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, southern-style cornbread, noodle kugel, macaroni and cheese, carrots, green beans, rice krispie treats, pumpkin pie, AND apple pie. YUM, YUM! Holidays are the best when spent in community with friends and chosen family.

Until next time... :^)

As the CSPC community continues to grow and we return to hosting more and more events, we need YOU to help make the magic happen by sharing your time, energy, and skills as a volunteer! Our next training for Registration and Monitors is 7-9pm on Monday, August 22

Community Matters: Volunteer Training in August

The CSPC is celebrating the hundreds of new members we’ve welcomed in 2022! Our community is growing and that brings fresh ideas, new parties and discussion groups, and more need for volunteers to help us create spaces where folx can bring their sexy dreams to life. 

We are pleased to be hosting another round of volunteer training for Registration and Monitor roles via Zoom on Monday, August 22. Registration training will take place from 7:0-8:00pm and Monitor training will be from 8:00-9:00pm. You are welcome to attend either one–or both!

Not yet a volunteer? No problem! Just go to the volunteering page on our website and follow the instructions to complete the online volunteer orientation and submit your volunteer application. Super simple!

Remember–the CSPC is fully run by members, for members. Your energy and enthusiasm as a volunteer matter!

Community Matters: Volunteering FTW!

by Eirikah Delaunay

Whether you’ve been a CSPC member for 20 years or 20 minutes, volunteering is the very best way to get the most out of the sex positive community. As a volunteer, you can get to know other members of the community while creating the sex positive events and connections you want most! 

Here’s what some volunteers had to say about their experience:

“(I’ve learned) the name for the thrill I get in helping. (As a volunteer) I can stave off social anxiety, (and) I can spread accurate knowledge in a non-judgmental and free manner.” –Bridge, volunteer of six months

“I’ve met with more of the great people who make the CSPC what it is: a unique and wonderfully supportive community of honest, open people. Learning, teaching, exploring together and supporting each other.” –Explorer_271, volunteer of nine months

“Volunteering is like getting to hang out with my friends. (It makes me feel) like I'm making a safe, sexy place for others to gather at, which is so nice.” –Aileen, volunteer of five years

“You will get more in knowledge, community connection, and self exploration than the effort you put into volunteering.” –Explorer_271, volunteer of nine months

“It's your community; you'll get out of it in proportion to what you put into it.” –Temptr, volunteer of 19 years

You can be part of a volunteer team that makes the hotness happen, whether you’re working at a party or helping out with all the behind-the-scenes work of the CSPC organization.

Hump History Year Five: The Fifth to Mention

by Teeebone

In 2012, the Hump was entering its fifth year of operation. The party had become a routine weekly event that new members often attended as their first CSPC party, creating a great first impression of the sex-positive community in general.

But along with the ever-lengthening track record, there was the week-to-week task of keeping the party fully staffed. Most of the original crew had left for personal or professional reasons by this time because “life happens,” and we were challenged to keep the party volunteer positions filled. Thanks to our volunteer training program, our successive waves of volunteers who stepped in to take over these open slots were just as effective as the original crew. With the official curtailment of impact play at the Hump enacted during the previous summer, changes in staff, and a desire to pursue other projects within the CSPC, one of the founders of the Hump decided to head out to become a host of another party and put together a new quarterly party as well. They announced their departure in early July, and after that I found myself handling even more responsibilities than before. Learning how to manage, delegate, and communicate effectively became crucial.

In August, a number of new innovations were introduced to the Volunteer Corps, including an EC Report Template that made for better and more detailed EC Reports. I put together a schedule template that helped make organizing the weekly Hump volunteer roster much easier. The volunteer training program continued to expand to help with the ongoing demand for staff for other parties and events, because at this point there was something happening almost every day at the CSPC. By the end of the year, I was handling the volunteer roster scheduling of the Hump Team as well as being the EC, Host, Champion, and sometimes the DJ.

In December there were two unique, one-of-a-kind scenes that took place at the Hump, a week apart from each other. One involved a suspension that was done very gracefully–with the female rope bottom covered in gold glitter. Many people gathered around to watch it happen. Clean up, however, took about two hours! The other scene was a "Harem Experience" which involved some advanced planning and a few extras thrown in for good measure:one guy, four gals (or was it six?) and appropriate music to convey the atmosphere... This was one of the most involved scenes I had ever helped put together, and I still love helping folx bring their fantasies to life. Though these scenes were a lot of work to help plan and support, both of them were great reminders for me of just how much fun it was to be running the Hump.

Until next time… :^)

Bask in the July Hotness of Femme Dominion!

Join us for Femme Dominion, a BDSM play party for Femme identified Tops and all the people who adore them. Get your kink on and get in some socializing with like-minded pervs in a Queer centered space. Bask in the many glorious forms that Femme can take, especially when it takes charge.

Play equipment and places to get intimate abound with seating scattered throughout the space to optimize the sweet voyeur/exhibitionist dynamic of public play. If last month is any indication, expect a wide variety of sensual, sexual, and solidly S/M scenes all night long.

We’ll start each evening with a social hour to help you climatize into our erotic world and enjoy some slightly less distracted interactions. We’ll also have name tags and red wrist bands for flagging to ease introductions and help those folks interested in pick-up play find each other.

This is a Queer centered, but not exclusionary, party focused on Femme Dommes and all the lovely people who appreciate our particular attentions as well as those who simply prefer Femme led spaces. We embrace Femme in its many varied manifestations inclusive of, but not exclusive to, gender identity.

Come explore ours or your own.

Get your tickets here! Not yet a member? Get a New Member ticket here–includes orientation, your first month’s membership, and entry to the party!

There will be no tickets available at the door for this event, tickets are only available through pre purchase online. Registration for this party is limited to a maximum of 120 tickets and we have sold out in advance of every one of our events so far so please plan accordingly. We are always looking for reliable volunteers to help with setting/cleaning up as well as registration and monitoring. If you are able to help in these capacity please reach out.

CSPC Volunteer Social--In-Person This Saturday, 6/18!

The President and HR Director would like to invite you to an afternoon and evening of fun at Skitty's home in Woodinville, between 4 and 10 p.m. on Saturday, June 18. Feel free to bring a guest, lounge outside in the sun or shade, play games on the grass, bring your favorite tabletop game, and sit around the fire table roasting s'mores and singing songs.

We'll have pop, juice, and water, and we'll be serving hamburgers, veggie burgers, and hot dogs. We encourage you to sign up to bring something to share at the potluck.

All past, present, and future volunteers are welcome. If you are new to volunteering, fear not. You do not need to have worked a volunteer shift, but you do need to have an active Volgistics account. See our Volunteering web page (https://thecspc.org/volunteering) for the simple steps to become a volunteer. Outdoors, masks are optional. Indoors masks are optional with a negative same-day rapid COVID test or PCR test within 48 hours.

After you register, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to sign up for the potluck (optional) and the address. Carpooling can be arranged on Discord or through the Volunteer Google Group. If you plan on arriving by bus, arrangements can be made to pick you up from the Woodinville Park & Ride. If you have any questions, please contact Skitty at skittycspc@gmail.com

Check our website at https://thecspc.org/events/2022/06/18/volunteer-social to register.

Community Matters--Updates from the Board

For the upcoming in-person events in both May and June, the CSPC will continue to uphold our current COVID precautions: we will continue to require mandatory proof of vaccination; mandatory masking except for eating, drinking, or using your mouth in a scene; and we will cap event attendance at 120 tickets sold in order to maintain space for social distancing. As folks begin to attend larger gatherings where masking isn’t mandatory (restaurants, sporting events, art and music festivals, etc.), we are seeing an increase in case counts in our region. Please consider taking a rapid test at home before attending events at the CSPC to help take care of each other and reduce transmission within our community (free rapid tests may be available here). Thank you to all our members for your ongoing willingness to care for each other’s safety and comfort.

As the CSPC continues to expand our in-person event offerings, volunteering is more important than ever! All our sex-positive resources and events are for members, by members. Involvement as a community volunteer is great for both new members and long term members. Make new friends, learn more about the opportunities for connection and growth in our sex-positive communities, and enjoy the satisfaction of providing essential support for all the hotness you enjoy as a member! Event volunteers get into the parties where they work for free, with time for play before or after their volunteer shift. For more information about volunteering, including links to the volunteer application and online volunteer orientation (on demand), visit us at https://thecspc.org/volunteering.

Now is an even better time to get started with volunteering, with online training for Registration and Monitor roles happening from 4:30-6:30pm on Thursday, May 12

Stay safe, stay sexy!
