On February 28, New York Ciy-based Excelsior MC notified its members and friends, via email, that the club’s Fire Island Leather Weekend, scheduled to take place in Cherry Grove on the weekend before Memorial Day Weekend, has been cancelled for the second consecutive year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The email read, in part, “The Excelsior MC Board has decided to postpone/cancel the 2021 Fire Island Leather Weekend run due to ongoing public health guidance. We are saddened to make this announcement and hope you’ll join us in 2022.”
The Mr. Fire Island Leather contest is a centerpiece of Leather Weekend and this year’s would have marked the 20th anniversary of its inception.
