The new info...I just talked with another source... The new information, that I might've missed in other articles, is that the counts need to be notarized. If we did a count at the beach, we couldn't take it anywhere to be notarized because then they can't verify it. And what notary would want to go to the beach and have their name on that document? Yet another thing that seems fishy...<br /><br />AANR is also known to really stretch the truth for good publicity. Here's my prediction: AANR will get publicity for announcing a number, but the world record will either fail or be a smaller number for some random reason. We'll just have to wait and see how it goes. I'll certainly be checking in to whatever statistics they provide.<br /><br />Also, you know those word verifications that we have to type to post a comment? Mine says "mating". I had to take a screenshot... What are the chances of that happening?

About the only people with access to information are those with Facebook accounts. I don't know, it just pains me to see such poor communication and organization from naturist and nudist organizations.Nudiaristhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08974309336712382854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17023681.post-55620895187158102262009-05-08T20:19:00.000-04:002009-05-08T20:19:00.000-04:00I've talked to a source for this record attempt. ...I've talked to a source for this record attempt. AANR is organizing it in collaboration with TNS's Nude Recreation Weekend. I don't know if they're organizing a specific time for everyone to head for the water -- but that would be bad since many venues have small pools.<br /><br />I think the goal is to do a head-count on that day and report the number to either AANR or TNS. So some AANR/TNS member will be at every beach or venue to do the count.<br /><br />Since this is on Nude Recreation Weekend, a date that both AANR and TNS push as the best time to try some nude recreation, they might just get the numbers they are hoping for. Mazo Beach's Nude Olympics happen that day, with tons of games, nice prizes, and free food, so we'll probably get many hundreds of people counted in the record attempt. The biggest festivities at every public beach are planned for that day, and a lot of venues have events planned also.<br /><br />All-in-all, it's certainly for publicity. I'm sure there will be headlines no matter what number we get, and it'll be a good thing.Academic Naturisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13187137403380281966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17023681.post-89498440739300983922009-05-08T12:00:00.000-04:002009-05-08T12:00:00.000-04:00Regarding AANR's skinny-dip record attempt. I real...Regarding AANR's skinny-dip record attempt. I really don't see how they can pull it off. AANR claims to have about 50,000 members and about 250 clubs. (Their Facebook page say 270 locations.) There are only a handful of "legally sanctioned" nude beaches in the US. The goal is 1 million skinny-dippers. Essentially, every AANR member would need to bring 20 friends, maybe fewer to the resorts and a lot more to the beaches. I don't think there's enough room in the pools.<br /><br />I haven't seen much useful information anywhere. According to the Facebook page, the event guide has gone out to the clubs, for what that's worth.<br /><br />I suspect that it's a lot of hype. I can't see any club letting in enough guests. I think it would be a logistical nightmare for most clubs, especially the smaller ones.<br /><br />For what it's worth, I'm planning to go to Cedar Trails that day, not for the record necessarily but because I've been wanting to visit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
