De Anza Springs Resort will host the annual meeting of the Western Region of the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR-West.) Any AANR member is welcome and encouraged to attend the meetings. This convention is very important to naturists in our region.
AANR-West delegates, representing the members of each club or resort, will conduct business and hold elections for executive and director positions. SCNA members currently hold two director positions and the vice-presidency. If you are an AANR member and want to have a direct influence on improving AANR-West and naturism in our region, consider running for a position in the AANR-West leadership. If you want to be involved, we urge you to contact us and attend this meeting.
SCNA delegates will participate in several of the meetings (Marketing, Government Affairs, etc). While this is NOT an SCNA event, we would appreciate knowing who is going so we have a head count for our delegation.

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

Anyone with a sincere interest in discussing the beaches and naturist issues is welcome. This is also an opportunity to consider joining the FOBB parent organization, the Southern California Naturist Association. Bring yourselves, some money for food, and your thoughts and enthusiasm.
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.

Bates Beach Party
![I [heart] Bates Beach, Carpinteria, CA friendsofbatesbeach.org](/clipart/ilovebatesbeach1.jpg)
Saturday, August 25, Noon to 6:00 PM
Location:
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.
