Camp Unity: Fireside Edition

With long, hot days giving way to starry, fire-lit nights, summer has officially arrived… and you know what that means!

Pitch a tent, lace up your boots (or collars), and get ready to earn those very adult merit badges — because it’s time for camp. And this time, it’s in-tents. 🔥

Are you heading to Dark Odyssey: Camp Thornwood later in August? Or are you feeling the FOMO and don’t want to miss out entirely?

Then grab your ropes, your paddles, and your curiosity, because Camp Unity is calling — and we’re about to get knotty.

Join Dark Odyssey, Afterdark Events, Society of Janus, Nocturnal Events, Wicked Grounds and more on August 9 for our campfire edition of Unity!

This definitely isn’t your childhood summer camp… unless yours had a dungeon tucked behind the cabins and a menacingly hot park ranger lurking in the woods.

Pre-Party Activities/Party Features to be announced!

With s’mores in one hand and Bug Juice in the other, who knows what you’ll find?

1. A flogging circle under the pines?
2. A spooky ghost story that ends in a spanking?
3. A rope scene strung between two trees?
4. Maybe even a campfire where you can rest your rope-burned hands after a long night of service or play.

Consent required. Clothes optional. Grab your ticket and your compass (or your leash) and come get dirty in the dirt — then stay tuned: house tops, demos, and special activities will be announced soon.

Because when the Bay comes together, it’s not just Better Together... it’s wilder, kinkier, and more fun under the stars. 🌲🍑

Dress Code:

Unleash your inner scout (or scoutmaster) and get ready to serve some serious campfire kinky looks. Whether you’re channeling a sultry ranger, a mischievous camper, or a rope bunny lost in the woods, we encourage fun, sexy, and creative attire that fits the vibe. Think:

1. Camping or scout-inspired fetishwear (Ranger hats, knee socks, short-shorts)
2. Boots, collars, and utility belts
3. Rope harnesses, utility belts, carabiners-as-accessories
4. Bandanas, backpacks, and anything that says “knotty in the woods”
5. Lingerie under flannel, open vests with no pants, or nothing at all
6. Animal ears, glow sticks, campy costumes

Please dress street legal/appropriate when arriving outside the venue; once inside you can change. If you’re unsure, dress like you're heading to a kinky nightclub in the forest. Just maybe leave the bug spray at home.

Fetishwear, kinky/sexy costumes, dungeon blacks, lingerie, etc. If in doubt, dress like you would for a good nightclub.

The Venue

This event will be held at Stopgap in San Francisco. The address will be provided to ticket holders for privacy and safety reasons. For planning purposes, it is in SOMA and a 10 minute walk from the UN Plaza/Civic Center BART station.

While a new venue in its current iteration, the building itself has a rich history in the kink community. The first floor is acessible and has social spaces, lockers (bring your own lock or purchase a lock at the front desk), play spaces, and two bathrooms. Descend into the 3100 square foot basement to enjoy historic equipment that many in the community may have enjoyed in days gone by plus some newer pieces from our collection. There will be crosses, benches, tables, bondage chairs, cages, and much more! Stopgap is not only located in an important place of kink history, it's a place of history in the making right now.

Accessibility Notes:

The entrance to the space is on the ground floor, which includes lockers, social areas, play spaces, and two bathrooms. There are no steps on the ground floor. The bathrooms are each single stall with grab bars on the wall and toilets mounted to the floor. The basement of the venue contains play areas and can only be reached via stairs. There will be music playing throughout the night, and ear plugs are available for free at the front desk. There are colored lights in use throughout the venue, including rotating “party lights” for ambiance. Cell phones are prohibited from being used in the venue and must be stored; however, you may speak to a host about reasonable accommodations if needed for things such as continuous glucose monitoring. If you have any accessibility questions, please email us at stopgapclub@gmail.com.
