AANR-Northwest
Solve Volunteer Appreciation
AANR-NW Government Affairs Team (GAT): AANR-NW had five representatives
at the SOLVE Volunteer Appreciation event on Thursday, November 7. The
region is in partnership with SOLVE
to do the twice yearly nude beach clean-ups at Rooster Rock and Sauvie
Island nude beaches. Attendees spoke to the new SOLVE executive director
and made contact with the person putting the next SOLVE volunteer
appreciation t-shirt design together to see if they are doing a
co-sponsor program on producing the shirts as well to see if we can
afford to be a sponsor of the shirt with our logo on it also.
Guiness Record Set at Haulover Beach
Last Sunday, 804 Nudists broke the previous record of 729 simultaneous
skinny dippers at a single beach. AANR was at skinny dip record event
at Haulover Beach
near Miami, Florida. Haulover is a public nude beach sanctioned by the
city that draws thousands of beach goers, many from foreign countries.
The beach is a major source of revenue for the city and for businesses
in the area.
AANR and AANR-Florida will be actively lobbying for two or more new nude
beaches in the coming year and are considering seeking the designation
of a nude hiking trail in one of the National forests.
