Set against the magnificent backdrop of the Cascade mountains and the Puget Sound, Leather titleholders from across North America will converge in Seattle, Washington on March 5 - 7 for Northwest Sash Bash 2010. Produced by Generic Leather Productions of Washington, the weekend will offer a variety of events including workshops and discussion groups, play parties, an evening of Leather fantasy performances, and a kinky pajama party co-hosted by Seattle's Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Northwest Sash Bash will give titleholders and their friends an opportunity to enjoy themselves without the frantic pace of contests and the stress of titleholder responsibilities.
Cost for the Northwest Sash Bash weekend is $40, with all proceeds to benefit the Tony Deblase Scholarship. Admission per event will also be offered during the weekend. Lodging for all current titleholders will be supplied by members of Seattle's Leather community.

Northwest Sash Bash was first produced in 2004 by Andy Mangels, Mr. Oregon State Leather 2004, and Teresa "Darklady" Reed, Ms. Oregon State Leather 2004. They invited current Leather titleholders from around the United States to visit Portland, Oregon for a weekend of events not centered around a title contest. The first Northwest Sash Bash was such a success that attendees decided to make it a Northwest tradition, trading hosting responsibilities between Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. Since its inauguration, Blackout Productions of Portland has supported the event.
Northwest Sash Bash 2010 is produced this year by Generic Leather Productions of Washington. codirectors of the weekend are Hugh B Russell, Northwest Leathersir 2010, and Mercea Strecker, American Leatherwoman 1998.
