Where to Get Bare This Summer

Nude Recreation Week Activities Planned for July

Shortly after millions of people across the country join together to celebrate our nation's independence on July 4, there will be a week-long celebration of freedom of a different kind - - as nudist clubs throughout the United States and Canada open their doors for Nude Recreation Week.

Now in its 28th year, Nude Recreation Week is July 7-13, and gives first-timers the chance to shed their stresses through a glimpse into clothes-free recreation. This annual celebration is an open invite for individuals - and families - to visit one of the 267 clothing-optional clubs affiliated with the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR), and experience firsthand a rapidly growing trend in both travel and recreation.

All AANR-affiliated clubs have activities and events planned throughout the week, for the club nearest you log onto the association's website at www.aanr.com.
