Summer is finally here

It’s finally here.  Time to come out of our shells and enjoy being out in the all together.  There are so many activities to choose from.  There are music festivals, runs and just sitting on the beach or lawn taking a good air bath.  .There are a couple of things not to forget.  Don’t forget sun screen.  It is important.   Don’t forget to be kind to your fellow nudists.  It is so easy to forget.  And lastly, don’t forget to stay vigilant.  Watch out for threats to  nudism.  In just this last week,two issues have crossed our desks.  Please, when you hear about troubling issues, please let someone know.  If it an emergency situation, call 9-1-1.  Otherwise, contact president@aanr-nw.org and gat@aanr-nw.org.
 

You are invited…

You are encouraged to come to either or both the AANR-NW Convention at Sun Meadow (July 14-17) and the AANR Convention at the Willamettans (August 8-14). Fun activities are planned for both.  Your participation is welcomed.  Leadership wants to meet you and to find out what you think.  Your opinions count.  If you come, your presence will be noted and appreciated.

Erratum

The dates for a few of the concerts at this year’s “Skin to the Wind” festival were misstated in last week’s edition.  Please check for the corrected dates in this copy.
