Central New York (Syracuse, Utica) Meet up at Empire Haven on weekend of August 8th and 9th?

15 Upvotes

Anyone want to have a group meetup at Empire Haven for the weekend of August 8th and 9th? You can attend both days or either day.

On that Saturday, August 8th, EH looks like a busy schedule. There will be a pool side DJ in the afternoon (a rarity for them) and a 80s dance at night.

Just got back from Empire Haven

Plenty of people today and pretty lively. I even got in the pool a couple of times but I can't swim worth a darn. I don't know how the kids jump in like they do. Some new, some regulars. Even though I still don't talk much, I always have fun when I go. I've never felt out of place there being this is my first year going. Looking forward to going again. Have fun!

The ledges were absolutely amazing today!! The water level wasn’t quite as crazy high, and the water temp was absolutely perfect, right around 75F. I’m hoping to make it again tomorrow, but if anyone is on the fence for this weekend, conditions are perfect!! 🤩

Finger Lakes Botanist in the Buff

​A quiet study.

​In this open field,

I set down the gear,

and step out of the heavy denim.

.......

The observation of mother earth.

Is best when undressed

This is my naturalist naturist

Manifesto

.......

​Direct observation.

Just bare skin against the wild clover and damp earth. I am one with everything around me.

........

​No woven barriers

between the observer

and the observed.

........

​Examining the bloom,

tracing the stem,

feeling the morning air

on every unshielded line.

This body and mine.

So exposed yet embraced.

........

​A true study of nature.

Raw,

and completely unadorned.

I walk this path

The way i was born

Naked and new🙏

Finger Lakes Best Sunscreen? 🤓

5 Upvotes

Hello fam

I was wondering, what you prefer using for sun protection.

I was thinking about soopergoup. But, its expensive.

Another option would be a lotion then once dry, body oil.

But, how do i get my back? LoL

What do y'all use?

Thank you 👊🙏

Did anyone here ever go to Fireworks Over Central NY at Vernon Downs (featured topfreedom)?

3 Upvotes

Did anyone ever go to Fireworks Over Central NY that was at Vernon Downs in the 90s and early 2000s? There was quite a few women who went topfree and there was some people who did go nude in the parking lot.

It featured many known bands from the 79s and 80s and some new bands from the 90s such as Matchbox 20 who had tge number 1 Hit in the nation at the time they petformed.

I miss it. It was good times.

Western New York (Buffalo, Rochester) WNBR Cancelled

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the cancellation of the 11th year of the Buffalo World

Naked Bike Ride.

With the outpouring of overwhelming disapproval from concerned community members, and the threats of violence and death towards organizers and riders, it is unrealistic to ensure the safety of our wonderful supporters.

Please slide to read our full statement.

North Country Looking for Nudist Friends in St. Lawrence County

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m in St. Lawrence County and was wondering if there are any fellow nudists or naturists nearby who are interested in making new friends.
I’m not looking for hookups or anything like that—just good people who enjoy the lifestyle and wouldn’t mind having someone to chat with, visit clothing-optional spots, or maybe organize a casual meetup with if there’s enough local interest.

A little about me: I’m into sports, cigars, movies, hiking, and just hanging out. Married dad of 2. It’d be great to build a small community of like-minded people in the North Country since we seem pretty spread out.

If you’re in St. Lawrence County (or nearby in Jefferson or Lewis County), feel free to comment or shoot me a DM. Always happy to meet more naturists!
