Southern California Naturist Association Events and Activities

We have planned several different Nude Summer Games that will test your strength, endurance, competitiveness, and sense of humor — the first, second, and third place overall winners will receive a medal, as does the wining club! These games are fun for the whole family; serious athletic ability is not required.

The games are divided between team sports and individual games of skill. They will occur in the pool, around the pool, and in other nearby areas of the park.

Dinner will be served for an additional fee. The price and menu are yet to be announced. Sign up for dinner in the café. The awards ceremony will take place after dinner.

• At Noon, we will meet on the club patio to deliver instructions to all participants.
• SCNA members wishing to participate (or watch) must RSVP to us at (818) 225-2273 by 8/5 so we can give Olive Dell a list for their office.
• Bring your SCNA membership card to check in at the gate.
• Please bring a folding chair to sit on!
• To stay overnight in a birdhouse cabin, RV spot, or tent call Olive Dell directly at (909) 880-0803.

Each month, SCNA hosts a monthly (clothed) dinner and discussion group at different public restaurants around the greater Los Angeles area. This is a way to introduce new people to naturism and to dispel mistaken impressions that non-nudists may have about us. This meeting is also a prerequisite before we can invite you to one of our clothing-optional events. Anyone with a sincere interest in discussing naturist issues is welcome.

The 86th annual convention of the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR) is a week-long gathering of nudists from all over North America.

AANR members from every region are invited to attend and participate in the meetings and workshops that will set the tone and direction for the next year and beyond.

Another sunny beach event! To get our beach back it is important that we keep showing up to get the non-nudists who come to the beach to see they have nothing to fear from us, and that it is okay for us to claim the unused western end of the beach.

The Santa Barbara nudity law remains in effect. Persons removing their swimsuit do so at their own risk. Go as bare as you dare! Your decision, your choice!

Bring your own picnic supplies, chairs, bathing suits and sunscreen and make a day of it. Afterwards we will all go into Carpinteria to eat and pay for our meals with $2 bills!

Call us at (818) 225-2273 or RSVP to scna@socalnaturist.org.

Friends of Bates Beach hosts a dinner meeting in Carpinteria on the third Tuesday each month (April through October) to plan our activities for the coming month.

Bring yourselves, some money for food, and your thoughts and enthusiasm. Also bring your curious friends and spouses!Reservations are not required but a call to our Message Center at (818) 225-2273 or (805) 910-6210 is appreciated so we can anticipate the head count.

The four days are full of fun, interesting workshops and events being sponsored by naturist leaders and clubs from all over the Western United States. Anyone who has gone to a Gathering before knows it is a great time to see old friends from other nudist groups (and to make new ones!). It’s a great way to connect with others, and share experiences and advice all can use to enjoy naturism even more.

The Naturist Society has announced that this may well be the last Western Gathering, limiting future events to Florida, the Eastern US, and Canada. Great attendance may help change their minds, so you participation is greatly encouraged.

SCNA usually participates at this four-day event, hosting several fun events and several workshops. Sun Meadows Resort is one of the gems of the Pacific Northwest region and worth a trip whether you go for the convention or not. Call them directly at (208) 686-8686 for accommodations, rates, and more info.

Discounted Grounds Fees are available for those who register for the Gathering with TNS.

We encourage those of you who will be attending to open your vehicles to carpooling. It’s also a great way to pass the time while traveling to Idaho. Let us know if you’re planning on going and can offer a ride.

The famous Zorthian Ranch is a 48-acre mountainside artists' enclave in the hills above Altadena and Pasadena, which has been used for fashion shoots, movie locations, and has been the site of the annual LA Folk Festival in years past. The Ranch was the life work of the late Jirayr Zorthian (1911-2004), who was considered a significant artist of the 20th century and whose paintings and sculptures adorn federal buildings, from the Pentagon to Post Offices around the country. The ranch displays many of his works, and it has a conference center, an outdoor stage, and a large swimming pool that overlooks the city.

With faith that the bridge and road will be passable, we have again rented the property for the afternoon. We welcome all of our great friends from the other naturist clubs in the region to enjoy the day with us.

This is always a great experience for SCNA members and guests to enjoy! For more information about the Ranch, see their web site at: www.zorthianranch.com

SCNA will provide soda and water. Please bring a pot luck dish to share.

Important! We need the full name of any NON-SCNA member at least 48 hours in advance in order to verify membership with the other clubs and/or to perform our usual background checks. NON-SCNA members will also be required to secure their RSVP’s with payment via PayPal, check, or Money Order, 48 hours prior to the event.

PLEASE RSVP to SCNA at (818) 225-2273 or via email to scna@socalnaturist.org. About five days before the event specific directions will be sent to those who RSVP.
