TELL YOUR STORY in....
NUSA Sun
 
Now distributed at Haulover Beach!  Starting from its base in Florida's Pasco County, home to many of Florida's nudist resorts, the paper has just been expanded to include a new South Florida section...as well as featuring travel articles on nudist venues worldwide, and some interesting background nudist articles.
 
The publication can be viewed online; mail subscriptions are also available:   www.nudistusa.com 
 
GET PUBLISHED - TELL YOUR PERSONAL STORY
 
The Sun is looking for short human-interest articles for the new S. FL.. section:  first time nude experiences, why you visit/vacation S. FL. because of Haulover, etc.
 
200 to 300 words are sufficient, preferably with your name and a head-shot photo.  Beach photos are also good, but note the Sun does not use explicit nude photos because the publication is also distributed outside naturist/nudist venues.  Photos should be in highest available resolution.  (Cell phone photos are not suitable for print.)

Key West Workshop Results

Richard and Shirley Mason attended the March 30 Workshop, presenting testimonial letters from Sunny Isles Tourism & Marketing Council Executive Director Ibis Romero and Haulover Lifeguard Captain Luiz Morizot-Leite.

Read letters:    Ibis Romero              Morizot-Leite
 
The City Commissioners noted they received about 70 letters supporting a c/o beach, and 10 opposed. As the Workshop progressed, we estimated that of the hundred-plus in the audience, about 40% were opposed to a c/o beach, or to the Smathers location. Alternate locations to Smathers were suggested.

No vote was expected at this Workshop; however, it was hoped this meeting would resolve remaining questions and lead to a vote at the next formal City Commission session. However, the City Commission instead requested that the City Manager meet with naturist interests to review possible new locations and report back.

So it should be noted that the issue is still moving forward, though at a slower pace than anticipated. Post-workshop discussions with several commissioners indicate there is still support for the idea, but some frustration due to the opposition expressed. We will report on future developements.

"It's apparent that commissioners want to receive more written support from voting residents of Key West before they give they give their whole-hearted endorsement for a city owned clothing-optional beach", states Shirley Mason, Executive Director of B.E.A.C.H.E.S. Foundation.

The Masons spent the following day scouting out new and previously recommended beach sites and meeting with park managers.
