How do I know the areas I can be Nude?

The areas you must be clothed will be marked with red tape and ribbon. Be sure you are appropriately clothed in these areas (i.e. not just your undergarments). These designated areas are to keep the property owners safe to host a private event for us as well as your own safety. Please respect the boundaries to keep a safe event.

Absolutely no photo or videos allowed! Even if you think you are in a private area, no photos. If we see photos are being taken, that is grounds for removal.

This is my first event, I’m Nervous.

First off, we are glad you are even thinking about coming to the event! Props to you for taking the first (sometimes scary) steps to trying something new. Being nervous is perfectly normal for newcomers – just remember, we’ve all been there!

 

This is a clothing optional event so there is no pressure to undress more than you feel comfortable with. We generally hear that after the first few minutes of an event, the nerves go away and it feels quite natural! Whatever your process is, do what feels best for your body – we are here as a community to support you.

 

Our events are Queer and Trans friendly. We aim to make a safe environment for ALL people.

 

Keep yourself safe! If you feel unsafe at any moment, first remove yourself from the situation. Second, find an organizer to discreetly and quickly address the problem.

What does Clothing Optional really mean?

It means exactly as it sounds – optional! Taking on or off garments is a completely personal choice. Dress up or down to what feels best for you…but we will admit, being fully naked is our favorite way to be!
