He received a special invitation from Drummmer Magazine's Robert Duvolt to compete as "Pacific Northwest Drummerboy 1998." Although Erik has only been a part of the Seattle Leather Community for a short time, he has become an eager participant immediately. He is a member of Generic Leather Productions of Washington, a non-profit organization which produces the Seattle Mr. Leather, Washington State Ms. Leather and Washington State Leather Ambassador contests. He is also a member of Seattle Men in Leather, a gay men's social club which produces the Seattle Granddaddy, Daddy, and Daddy's boy contests. In addition, Erik works at Beyond the Edge Cafe which serves as a gathering/meeting place for the Leather Community of Seattle. Erik donates much of his free time on the weekends to help with other Leather Community fundraisers. For example, he volunteered for the Pride Festival, an event sponsored by Washington State Mr. Leather Organization, and worked for over 12 hours at that event alone. Let's congratulate Erik and cheer him on in San Francisco! Billy Lane Seattle Mr. Leather 1998 http://www.wolfenet.com/~aubrey/aubrey.htm
