2018 AANR Elections
At the beginning of May, AANR members who were current on March 15, 2018, should have received an email with their voter’s registration code. It will have been sent from elections@vote-now.com. The subject was AANR Ballot. This email contains detailed instructions on how to cast your vote.
If you did not receive this email, call the AANR office at 1-800-TRY-NUDE to get help. They will help you get your registration code. The AANR Office is located in Kississimmee. Florida, so call during the week before 1pm Pacific Time. If you share your email with another AANR member, one of you may need to use a paper ballot, so don’t delay since there will be postal delays in sending paper back and forth across the country. Actually, I encourage everyone to vote now so that you don’t forget to do so.
As well as being found in AANR’S May Bulletin and in the member’s only section on AANR.com, the voter’s guide can be found at
The password for this document can be found in your Northwest NudeScene insert in the May Bulletin on the calendar page.
You are encouraged to vote. In years past, less than 10% of the AANR membership has chosen its leadership. AANR-NW has led the organization with the best turnout. Let’s do it again this year. Your vote counts. Please take the time to vote.
AANR-NW Photography Contest
AANR-NW is gathering YOUR photos for a contest. As you can see from our website, our pictures are lacking and we are looking to highlight your beautiful pictures. Please take this opportunity to share your beautiful and stunning photos. And win cash prizes and accolades. The contest will have five categories. For each category that has at least five entries, there will be a $75 prize. The Grand Prize winner will be $150.
- Nude, but Not Nude (Pictures that show nudism, but can be used at public venues like public festivals. Think about tastefully placed bushes, etc. No black bars please.)
- In the Woods
- On the Beach
- At your Club
- Other
Images should be no smaller than 2MB. They should capture the essence of nudism and nude recreation. The only advertising that can be seen is that for our associated clubs, AANR or AANR-NW. When you take pictures at a club, be certain that you have the club’s permission.
The online deadline for submissions is July 16, 2018. If you wish, you can bring a print of your submission, with an digital copy, to the AANR-NW Convention at Squaw Mt. Ranch by July 19, 2019. Attendees at the convention will vote for the winners of this competition. There will be a winner for each category and one grand prize winner. Winners will be announced in the AANR-NW Nudescene, as well as on the the AANR-NW website. All submitted pictures will become the property of AANR-NW and can be used on the websites, newsletters, social media and other promotional materials of AANR-NW, AANR and their associated clubs.
In all but the first category, nudes are welcome. In fact, street clothes are discouraged. All people must have signed photo releases submitted with the photos. Any children in these photos must not be recognizable. While we love to see children, and their parents may give permission, these children may feel differently when they become adults. We want to respect their future choice.
