** Awards from the AANR convention.
————————————————————
The AANR Convention took place two weeks ago. Each year awards are presented and representatives from the Northwest did very well this year.

For performing distinguished and meritorious services to AANR, both our own Pat Brown and Theresa “T” Price’s mom Bev received the President’s Meritorious Service Award.

And then there is Mike Parker and Hidden Springs.
I wonder if Mike would let us publish a copy of his award winning original article “Nudism and Science Fiction”. I’d love to read it.

Hidden Springs also won the Schofield Award, which is given to the nonlanded club that accumulates and documents the most mileage on visits to landed clubs.
And Hidden Springs with editor Mike Parker won the Iisley Boone Newletter Award for best newsletter in their club size (50-100 members).

** Nudist Rights
————————————————————
At the AANR convention we discussed the need to change our focus. Although AANR is involved in public relations, support for clubs, sponsoring events, etc., our main task has always been to protect our right to be nude in appropriate places. We accomplish this by monitoring and responding to potential legislative challenges, proposing changes in the laws, lobbying for public lands, aiding individuals involved in custody cases, etc.

However, our members and the public may not be aware of the extent of these activities and accomplishments. We have started investigating the reasons for this, one of which may be that we do not adequately explain the legislative threats and the actions AANR takes to forestall passage of the bills. We are working on ways to address this.

At this point nothing definite is being proposed. The next step will be to form a committee. Stay tuned.

** AANR Convention 2015
————————————————————
The 2015 AANR Convention was awarded to Sun Meadow Resort. This will be a great opportunity for us to show off our Northwest hospitality and get to enjoy a convention nearby. The theme is Surf City.

** BREAKING NEWS
————————————————————
At the AANR convention there is a proposal to change the name of our organization. Since our major purpose is advocacy: protection of our right to go nude in appropriate places, the name, American Association for Nude Recreation, does not adequately state what we are about. One proposal is that we change our name to American Association for Nudist Rights. A major advantage of this name change is that we would retain the initials AANR.
After this meeting the staff will research the legal requirements, internet domain names, etc. The intention is prepare a motion for the 2014 membership ballot. Please visit the AANR website to comment on this proposal.
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.

** Looking for Lawyers
————————————————————
There is a nudist in Oregon looking for a lawyer that had experience/knowledge in helping with a custody battle that involved nudism. In response, I would like to be able to compile a list of lawyers in the region that are willing and able to represent cases involving nudism. To do this, I need your help. Please send me the contact information for such lawyers so that a list can be compiled. Please send this information to president@aanr-nw.org (mailto:president@aanr-nw.org)

** Skinny Dip followup
————————————————————
The weather did us in this time. With only 2/3 of the clubs reporting, it looks like we will not be breaking the World Record for Skinny Dipping. Weather shut down several of the large venues. So maybe next time. But, the AANR pr committee is looking for ideas about events that would be fun and get us some publicity. If you have any ideas please send them to vice-president@aanr-nw.org (mailto:vice-president@aanr-nw.org?subject=PR%20idea) or president@aanr-nw.org (mailto:president@aanr-nw.org?subject=PR%20idea)
