75 years ago this week, my 2x Great Grandfather Rudolph Johnson was elected president of @aanr-social.bsky.social at the 1950 national nudist convention. 60 years ago, he was added to the AANR Hall of Fame. Today, I’m attending the 94th annual convention at Oaklake trails as AANR’s PR Chair. Wow! 🤯

While influencers post carefree pics in the name of 'body positivity' — 1 million women suffer from an (easily cured form of) horrific body shame 💔

Skinny Dip Day offers a bolder vision: joyful 💗 AND committed to impact 🌊

Let’s stop pretending selfies are enough.

The most popular radio station, of the most densely populated state in the US — @nj1015.bsky.social 💗 — did a 23-min segment about us 🗞️ on their awesome afternoon program.

Check out some excerpts in this video!

Skinny Dip Day is proud to have raised over $42k (& counting) for Fistula Foundation 💗

Thank you so much Earl and Clothes Free Life 💗

Especially appreciate your perspective in the first few lines about how naturism can be about BOTH getting giddy at fests AND helping others (such as those in dire need from horrific body shame, etc).

This year’s Skinny Dip Day raised $15,130 across 22 locations for The Fistula Foundation. Obstetric fistula ranks as one of humanity’s most disabling injuries—but it can be cured by a surgery that costs $633.

NEF is pleased to have been able to support @skinnydipday.bsky.social with a grant.
