Zorthian Ranch Pool Party and Talent Show
Saturday, September 8, Noon to 7:00 PM
Location:
Cost:
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
GOT TALENT?
The Zorthian Bacchus Stage has now seen three fun SCNA talent shows, so we are going to go for a fourth! Bring your instruments and serenade us, tell a joke or two, read a story or poem, juggle, dance, whatever your talent is that you’d like to show off, start practicing now for the party on September 8. Please let us know if you would like to perform as soon as possible so we can work you into the show!
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.

SCNA and Friends of Bates Beach are the cleanup captains for North Rincon Beach. Participating in this annual event helps demonstrate our commitment to the beach.
9 AM - Bring gloves to wear and maybe a long-handled picker tool if you have one. Otherwise bags and other material will be provided. The 9am start time is assigned by the state Coastal Commission who is organizing the event statewide. If you can’t make the 9AM start time, you can still come as late at 11am to help with the second half of the cleanup.
Noon - Bring your own lunch and towel and chair and we can go as a group down to the beach to enjoy it as nature intended!
6 PM - Bring a few extra bucks and come into Carpinteria with the group for dinner afterwards. A great way to spread the word to the business community that naturists are consumers!
