<br>Cougar Valley State Park Update<br>Submitted by: Shirley Gauthier- AANR-NW GAT Chair<br>Thank you to everyone who responded to the AANR-NW Government Affairs Team (AANR-NW GAT) post concerning a potential clothing optional area at Cougar Valley State Park. That posting generated more emails to me than any other post in the history of the AANR-NW eNews! It is exciting to have so many nudists responding to the possibility of an additional new clothing optiona= l area in Oregon.<br>The posting generated a few questions I thought would be best answered via the AANR- NW eNews rather than individually as others 05 share the same questions.<br>1. Is AANR-NW GAT soliciting financial contributions for Cougar Valley Park work? No, we are not soliciting funds at this time. AANR-NW dues paying members financially support the GAT program. We never turn down checks in support of GAT but we are not specifically asking for Cougar Valley Park funds at this time. If you are not a member of AANR and want t= o support this project please consider joining AANR by going to www.aanr.com &lt;<a href=http://www.aanr.com/>http://www.aanr.com/</a>&gt; .=20<br>2. Should I make phone calls in addition to writing a letter? No. We are asking that you write letters, so that they will become part of the public record. The last thing we want to do is contribute to the State Par= k Planners work by taking up his valuable work-day answering phone calls. = =20<br>3. Do you have to be member of AANR-NW to subscribe to the eNews? No, you do not have to be a member of AANR. Simply have your friends email <a href=/group/AANR-NW-eNews/post?postID=i8hV7byeg7nm8NXG_Yd0zG5DrrKfAYNU3MdlGGlLN-kiJP8KRgyyRoYQjh5ap1KV9yhIxpI>eNews@xprt.net</a> and ask to be added to the subscriber list.=20<br>4. How I can I help? If you belong to a club/resort ask your newsletter editor to include the eNews post soliciting letters in your next newsletter issue. That post can be found at <a href=http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/AANR-NW-eNews/=20>http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/AANR-NW-eNews/=20</a><br>5. Can you contact me for any additional help you might need? Please stay tuned to the eNews for any additional calls for support or help.=20=20 =20<br>AANR- NW GAT is requesting that you write a simple and short letter. Simpl= y state that you are interested in Cougar Valley State Park including a clothing-optional area and that you would like to be added to the Cougar Valley State Park informational mailing list. AANR-NW has a long history o= f working with the Oregon State Parks Department. If you are an AANR member please consider identifying yourself as a member. If you are not a member you might mention that you value AANR=92s long history of beach work events and Oregon State Park adoption at Rooster Rock State Park. We ask that you do so via snail mail so that your letter becomes part of the official publi= c record. Address your letter to Oregon State Parks Planner, Ron Campbell, 725 Summer Street NE-Suite C, Salem, OR 97301. Please include your name an= d address so that your letter becomes part of the formal public record.<br>I appreciate all the emails thanking the AANR-NW Government Affairs Team fo= r our dedication to this project and past history of promoting and advocating nudism on public lands.<br>Do not hesitate to contact me if you have further questions or suggestions. You can do so by emailing <a href=/group/AANR-NW-eNews/post?postID=at8wq7MqQAek6up8_vury6bBc1WkOLqQglBDfRGnjfxXBJdHsRk0bVpvtACtNduJw5XfxeI>sherbog@msn.com</a>, by phone at 541-747-8096 or by snail mail at Shirley Gauthier, %The Willamettans, POB 969, Marcola, Oregon 97454-0969. –<br>–=20 No virus found in this outgoing message.

AANR President John Kinman announced the &quot;2007 Ultimate Idol Challenge.&quot; At the AANR Trustee meeting in November, President John Kinman put forth a challenge to all regions to compete in a karaoke competition to be held at the Willamettans in Oregon during the AANR Convention.<br>AANR-NW will sponsor one entrant selected from club winners that compete in the Regional Finals. The entrant 05 be an individual singer or small combo, but each club is allowed only one entrant, plus one from the associates.<br>Before we can set the date and location of the regional finals, we are giving all clubs in the region a chance to potentially hold these regional finals. This must be done prior to the convention at The Willamettans in August. Each club interested in hosting must contact me prior to April 22. Let me know the date and time you would be willing to host the regional Ultimate Idol competition. The event prizes and rules will be set by the region. You do not have to waive grounds fees in order to hold this event.<br> Contact me personally with whether your club is interested in hosting this event by the above date.

AANR-NW GAT-SAUVIE ISLAND<br> Folks, Shirley is asking us ALL to write a two simple letters of appreciation. We have had an excellent relationship with a particular public servant. The time has come to let his boss and the county know that we really would like to see him (rather than anyone else) continue in this capacity. Read carefully what Shirley has written below. -Paul<br> The American Association for Nude Recreation-NW Government Affairs Team (AANR-NW GAT) has worked hard to develop partnerships on public lands. We have developed a wonderful working relationship with Senior Deputy Larry Weaver at the Sauvie Island.<br> AANR-NW GAT has spent time sending letters to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Dept., Oregon Department of State Police, and the Board of Commissioners in recent months after being contacted by Deputy Weaver concerning potential budget cuts that 05 have impacted his position. April 2 at the AANR-NW GAT beach cleanup at Collins Beach Larry expressed that he is no longer as worried about the funding as in the past. He did express that letters would be appreciated and welcomed.<br> The GAT team is soliciting your time, energy and support. Please take the time to write two letters. Suggestions for your letters-<br> Keep your letters short and to the point.=20<br>Express your appreciation for Larry and his ability to manage the clothing optional area in a safe and welcoming way.=20<br>Larry has a long history at Collins Beach and families feel safe knowing he is patrolling.=20<br>Larry maintains a relationship with beach users that encourages communication.=20<br>You might mention that AANR has partnered with SOLV in the &quot;Adopt-A-River&quot; program and that Larry contributes much to the success of the program. =20<br>Address your letters to:<br>=20 Chairman Board of County Commissioners Columbia County Courthouse St. Helens, OR 97501<br> Sheriff Philip W.

No! It was not an April Fools joke and we take all our public lands adoptions very seriously.

As Riverkeepers, we will be monitoring water quality and native as well as invasive species along our beaches.<br>Columbia Riverkeeper's mission is to restore and protect the water quality of the Columbia River and all life connected to it, from the headwaters to the Pacific Ocean.=20<br>AANR-NW GAT thanks Mark for volunteering to participate in the required training program and choosing to partner with AANR.=20=20<br>Additional AANR public lands adoptions include Rooster Rock State Park Clothing Optional Beach through the Oregon State Parks Department &quot;Adopt-A-Park&quot; program.
