April 2006

 

Peace River Canoe Trip

 

     

On April 23rd we met at the Canoe Outpost in Arcadia where both the Suncoast Naturists and the Sanibel Naturists were loaded on a bus, taken upstream and then pushed into the Peace River in unstable and manually powered craft to find our own way back. Even though the river level was 2’ below normal and the canoes had to be pushed rather than paddled in many spots and the trip took an extra agonizing hour, this editor had the best beer of his life kindly pulled out of an ice chest by a fellow naturists at the end. Most agreed we need to do it again—but only when the river rises.

Suncoast Naturists enjoyed a night at the Casino...

 

Some members took a shot at the Wheel of Fortune

The risk takers tried out the Craps table

 

"Errors!" Contest

Another contest had members trying to find errors on the decorations.  Do you see the error in this picture?

 

"Frogs" Contest

Frogs, frogs everywhere!  Members searched the house to see how many frogs they found...133!

 

Everyone had something to do and plenty to enjoy...

 

Sitting in a tent outside enjoying nature

 

Lounging in the refreshing pool and relaxing in the hot tub

Playing horseshoes and washers

 

except one little froggy that taunted SCN members all evening

until one member came to the rescue

and he met an untimely death!

 

Pose for the camera!

 

Flexing his muscles

Enjoying the greenhouse

Taking a shot at slots

Just hanging out (no pun intended) and having fun!

The host took members on Greenhouse tours; look at some of his prizewinners...

January 17th, 2006 Suncoast Naturists go to the Dogs

On January 17th, 27 Naturists found themselves at the Sarasota Kennel Club Race Track. We were graciously welcomed at the entrance and escorted to a wonderful buffet with window seating on the Finish Line. We had the window tables throughout the night, although some of us ventured outside to the regular race track seating. The betting was somewhat hectic; some of us didn’t know the first thing about betting on dog races. This writer didn’t get the wagering information from everyone placing bets, but as far as could be determined, there were four big winners.

This was indeed a great way to celebrate our Third Tuesday Dining Out.

 

 

Suncoast Naturist Christmas Party 2005

 

Member enjoyed the evening with lots of activities and lots of FOOD...

 

DECORATING THE CHRISTMAS TREE

The tree started out devoid of the Christmas spirit...sniff...looked like it was going to be a blue Christmas.

 

 

     But with the help of our members it filled up quickly!

 

The gingerbread house looked not so tasty...at first

 

 

Before                       After                

 

MEMBERS PARTICIPATE IN THE GIFT EXCHANGE

1 - Bring a wrapped gift

2 - Get a number            

3 - Pick a gift                 

4 - Don't like it?  That's OK just steal from someone else!  That is the rule!

5 - Hide your gift so no one can steal from you!  Sorry but that isn't a rule...but a few of our members did try!

 

 

The irony...our president participated and coincidently picked a gift that included "President cheese"!  He didn't hold onto that too long...someone stole it from him!

 

 

 

Wait a minute...is this Halloween or Christmas?  Christmas, of course, but this member is a man who wears many hats.  He must have superior intelligence or maybe he is a government worker!

 

December Report

 

Once again the annual SCN Christmas party was a huge success thanks to our hosts. Without having an official count of guests, it seemed as though the crowd was larger than in past years—maybe even more playful. Someone has said that naturism comes naturally to children and when adults remove their clothing they remember how to play like children. This was certainly evident during the gift exchange when members would proudly show off their newly acquired possession—but not too proudly or it would be taken away from them in an exchange with the next person in line. Even our President was vulnerable to this confiscation of a coveted gift. A fire in the backyard kept the cool night air at bay and provided an alternative method for drying off after stepping out of the hot tub.

The food, as always, was plentiful and delicious. After eating, our President opened the official annual membership meeting where old and new business was discussed and new officers were elected. Quite a few members volunteered to hold events for next year but it will be difficult to top this party– which was a fitting climax to another good year for our growing organization.

 

 

Halloween 2005

 

 

 

Some people wore costumes, some wore nothing at all...

 

   

 

Some weren't people!  Eyeball Hors D'oeuvres mmm, yummy!

 

 

When we said BYOB, this woman brought her own Vodka! 

Needless to say, all bottles were empty by the end of the night!

 

 

Halloween Party Report

 

We had terrific hosts for the Halloween Party on the 29th. They had the evening well planned with Trivial Pursuit, which the men won of course. They were able to keep the crowd very excited and judged fairly even though Ed's answers were always "Michael Jackson!", no matter what. They had prepared surprise gifts, nicely wrapped with little verses: "We hired Casper (the ghost) as our Caspersen Beach mascot to scare away all the textiles!" There were hilarious costumes. There was a pimp of the very best, and a big bottle of vodka, some ladies were flashing, you saw wigs and devils, sports freaks, Rastafarians and King Neptune caught in a net and weeds.  Thanks hosts for doing such a big job with decorating and a whole table of snacks!
