They will begin enjoying a whole category of special benefits available to 100% clubs, from reduced Bulletin advertising rates, to complimentary brochures and stationery, greater rebates on every new and renewed membership, and more. We're grateful for the added measure of support this lends to AANR, making us even larger and more credible. Thanks Sandy Bares!<br> AANR Support for State Senator Vicky Walker gets mention in &quot;The Oregonian&quot;<br>This week &quot;The Oregonian&quot; contained a brief mention of AANR's support for Oregon State Senator Vicky Walker, who is running for re-election. She has honored the Willamettans club with several visits and has a long track record of hard work in the state senate. When asked about the support, she answered that there is an AANR club in her district and that they are good neighbors in their community. This is but one example of how AANR is building relationships with those in government from both parties to strengthen our ability to advocate for nude recreation with the people who count. <br>See: <a href=http://www.oregonlive.com/living/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/living/1162261539>http://www.oregonlive.com/living/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/living/1162261539</a> 256400.xml&amp;coll=7<br> Linda Berry, Director of Publications<br>YOUR CHILI RECIPES WANTED<br>In an upcoming issue of The Bulletin, we would like to feature chili recipes on the Cooking in the Nude page.
