Darklady Receives Community Choice Award

PORTLAND, Ore. — Blackout Leather Productions presented its 2009 Community Choice Award to Theresa “Darklady” Reed on Aug. 9 during the eight annual Rose & Thorn Awards, which honors local leather community members and organization.

“Given that I received the Community Choice Award in 2007, I never expected to win it again,” Darklady said. “The fact the community saw fit to honor me with this award again is very encouraging and I very much appreciate it.”

The Community Choice Award recipient is determined by ballots cast from the community with the BLP board members reviewing submissions and making the final determination.
