I’m traveling the country with a stop at the convention in Oklahoma. A great opportunity to see a lot of the amazing country, meeting so many people. Something is very obvious. When we spend the night at a non-nudist RV camp, it’s harder to meet people. When we stopped at Mountainair near Denver, we hadn’t finished hooking up our RV and we were already invited to dinner. Before we knew it, there was a group of “friends” around a picnic table, visiting and laughing. They were not all members at Mountainair, some were new to naturism. All were friendly and welcoming. In Kansas, we visited a small club near Wichita and found more friendly faces. We are part of a large, international family where we recognize safety and friendship across this great land.
As we prepare to finish our outward trip and return tomorrow toward the Northwest, we are amazed how quickly the time has passed. We are ever more aware how important it is to protect our “Right to Bare Arms, Legs, Torsos.’ AANR is vital to help us continue to grow and protect our sacred rights.

Young Nudist’s Summit
On September 8-10, The Young Nudist’s Summit will be hosted at Sun Meadow.This is a group of young adults who are members of AANR and it is their annual summit meeting. The purpose of the Young Nudist Leaders Summit is to enlighten and engage young nudist leaders with knowledge of how AANR and other organizations may help stimulate growth, as well as encourage interaction among the groups/individuals in order to further our knowledge of how AANR and other organizations may be able to support their endeavors. They will have speakers, and we will have a massage therapist as well. There will be a DJ dance on Saturday night.
