The 1st Annual Greater Toronto Volleyball Tournament at Bare Oaks was a fantastic success! As one long time member said, he’s never seen the place so busy in 17 years. All of our campsites were full. However, we could have accommodated a much larger number of players since most people came with tents and were happy to share sites. Nine teams competed and the play was both fun for the players and entertaining for the spectators. Many families came and the children’s activities included water balloon games, arts and crafts, Fill the bucket races, bead necklace building, bocce Ball, sand castle building.

It’s really hot out there but nothing beats taking it all off and going for a swim! Ah the feeling of the hot sun and cool water on bare, unencumbered skin… there nothing like it! The salt water system was definitely worth it. The water feel so smooth and silky. I’m amazed that I am able to comfortably open my eyes in the water. In traditional pools, I have to keep my eye closed otherwise I get itchy red eyes. This feels totally normal! The solar heater is fantastic. Within one week of opening the pool in May, it heated the water to 27 degreesRead More →

There are two articles about naturism in today’s Toronto Star. The main article, ‘Interest sags in nude retreats’ is about clubs in Toronto being for sale or sold.
