AANR Weekly Report – 03-13-2009
Clubs and Trustees Weekly Report
March 13, 2009
Erich Schuttauf, Executive Director
I am sorry that my report must be brief this week. I am working a number of “irons in the fire.” It would be premature to discuss these projects at this moment, but I should have details in a future report.
Oops, I Goofed
Last week, we brought you news of Carolina Foothills Resort being interviewed by local television media. What I neglected to realize and mention was that Cedar Creek in Pelion, South Carolina, also got considerable press and did a great job. Thanks to them for the double punch for nude recreation in the state.
Linda Berry, Director of Publications

Nudes In The News
What does a trampoline, an antique car, Bubba, and Pumpkin have in common? Find out in the April issue of The Bulletin that goes to the printer on Monday.
CAROLYN HAWKINS, PUBLIC RELATIONS COORDINATOR
I helped Steve with his move to Austin, Texas, and I fell in love with the place. He is just about settled in his new apartment.
Positive Publicity
We have been working with a man who is doing a documentary. I will keep you posted as it progresses.
We sent out pitch on nude Woodstock and within one-half hour we received a hit. Check the link below:
Shirley Gauthier had a hand in this.

This is the only change for this week:
Sno-Birds in Minnesota has a new Web site which is: www.thesno-birds.com
Also, the zip code is wrong. It should be 55434.
Have a great weekend everybody.

REQUEST: Print the following in your Club Newsletter or send to your members in your E-News, when timely and appropriate. We want the members to know what GAT does for them!
Message from Alonzo Stevens, GA Chair:
Great Outdoors Week (GOW) in Washington, D.C., is approaching in June. Your AANR Government Affairs Team is carefully planning our annual trip to represent our clubs, members and those of you who recreate on public lands. We have a strong core team and plan to grow our team of AANR representatives with a few new volunteers who will make visits in Washington, D.C., on behalf of the AANR. The team is well equipped with the AANR GAT GOW Guide, which articulates our key talking points and directs new volunteers in the process of making appointments, etc. The team will assemble June 7-13 to visit national recreational leaders, legislators, and their staffers, participate in a GAT leadership meeting, and support the American Recreation Coalition (ARC) www.funoutdoors.com by sponsoring and attending various GOW activities. Remember, “I work for you and your voice counts!”
AANR-West Beach Cleanup
Joe Panganiban, AANR-West Membership Marketing Chair
During the AANR-West Spring Board Meeting, March 7, 2009, held at Lupin Lodge in Northern California, it was brought up by a board member that after the meeting board members might spring into action with a community service event. It was mentioned that the event might promote the goodwill of AANR and demonstrate our contribution to a specific community or public project. About 20 miles from Lupin is a white sand beach known as Bonny Doon. This public state beach is frequently visited by nudists and nurtured by the Bay Area Naturists. During the meeting, the challenge was presented to have a Bonny Doon beach cleanup on Sunday. We met at the Lupin clubhouse and headed to the beach. Signs were posted, and with large bags in hand the cleanup was in progress. After the cleanup, one of our volunteers approached a nudist with the recent Bulletin close at hand. Subsequently, the nudist offered to loan the volunteer HIS Bulletin and thanked us for the work we do!
