39TH ALPE ADRIA MEETING AT FKK-SOLARIS (HR), 23-26 JUNE 2011


Eleven federations or countries with approximately 200 people joined the 39th Alpe-Adriatic meeting. Following countries were present: Italy, Hungary, Germany, Austria, Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, France, Netherlands and Slovenia. For the  first time, 5 persons from Brazil joined us. The activities were various and consisted of:
volleyball, beach volleyball, ping-pong, chess, cross country runs (800 meters for adults and 400 meters for youngsters), tug-of-war by groups of 5 persons consisting of at least one female and one youngster. Tennis and pétanque competitions were also held and for the first time this year, we included badminton.

This family event, organized by the responsible for sports of the European Naturist Commission, takes place each year during an extended weekend for the surrounding countries and it’s now for the third time that SOLARIS welcomes us and does everything to satisfy us.

The members of the International Naturist Federation were the first ones to get the benefits associated to their membership card with the annual stamp. The holiday guests were also welcome and could register at any time because the event programme was displayed everywhere over the naturist centre and there was a standby for late registrations at the grounds.

Naturism is always under constant development and Croatia is one of the destinations having a lot of success; that’s one of the reasons why we are present there.

Even if the Croatian Federation is not very representative, we try to support them and give them the possibilities of growing. All this could not be done on this respective site without a partnership like the society of Valamar and the presence of many followers of this philosophy.

For the next year at the beginning of June, the 40th meeting should have even more success; we expect your participation. Please mark the date: 7-9 June 2012.


The Hungarian federation will handle ping-pong, Slovenia stands for volleyball and beach volleyball, Russia and Ukraine will arrange badminton (appreciated by many participants this year), Austria will organize the cross country runs as well as the chess contest and Italy will be responsible for pétanque and perhaps for a card game competition.

There are actually no responsible for tennis and tug-of-war. New ideas are always welcome and should be proposed as soon as possible to our new responsible for Sports of EuNatCom.

OASE RESORT ON THE ISLAND OF CURAÇAO

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this e-mail to you because we have a small bungalow park on the island of Curaçao that can be rented privately by groups.

Our park is located in the beautiful nature of Barber. It's surrounded with green and completely walled so it's entirely private. It has a beautiful tropical garden and in between a nice refreshing swimming pool and several shaded places where you can relax. At the moment we have 2 bungalows with 2 bedrooms and 1 bungalow with one bedroom, by the end of this year we'll have another 2 bedroom bungalow and a studio, so we can offer room for 16 people.

For more information, please check our website: www.oaseresort.com

Best regards

BOOK DESCRIPTION
In de afgelopen vijftig jaar is Nederland uitgegroeid tot het meest naaktvriendelijke land ter wereld. Inmiddels vinden maar liefst twee miljoen mensen dat naaktrecreatie in hun lifestyle past. Toch bestaan er nog flink wat misvattingen over naturisme en over mensen die bloot recreëren.

In dit rijk geïllustreerde boek beschrijven Henk Jan Kamerbeek en Barend Toet de boeiende geschiedenis van het naturisme in Nederland en daarbuiten, verkennen zij de maatschappelijke schaamstreek rond naaktrecreatie en laten zij ervaringsdeskundigen vertellen hoe bevrijdend naakt recreëren kan zijn.

De auteurs schuwen de scherpe kantjes niet en gaan in op hardnekkige vooroordelen over naakrecreatie, zoals het vaak veronderstele verband tussen blootlopen en seks. Ook laten zij zien hoe door diverse bevolkingsgroepen in onze multiculturele samenleving tegen bloot wordt aangekeken. Bovendien bekijken zij de trendverschuiving van collectief verenigingsnaturisme achter de schutting naar meer individueel beleefde naaktrecreatie op openbare od commerciële terreinen.

In die unieke boek geven ook bekende Nederlanders, zoals Bram Bakker (psychiater en publicist), Giel Beelen (radiomaker), Jan Heemskerk (hoofdredacteur Playboy), Maria Schopman (seksuologe)en Paul Schnabel (directeur van het Sociaal en Cultureel Planbureau) hun person;ijke visie op vele aspecten van het hedendaagse naturisme.

This book is produced on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Dutch Federations of Naturiosts.
