Travelites' pool party report, upcoming&auction update
Cheri
could not have been more fun with the almost 20 who made plans to
arrive from all points in SC and a few from GA. We were all ages from
21 to past retirement age.
There was more than enough food: barbecue, deli sandwiches, chicken in
a couple of forms plus all the sides and to top it off, a few cakes
and some homemade cookies and premium ice cream.
We played water volleyball, latter/boulder toss, bocce ball as well as
just vegged in the sun and shade catching up with old and new friends.
Happily, summer may officially end shortly but here in South Carolina
weather is great for nuding most of the year.
Next weekend at least 4 Travelites will be visiting Whispering Pines
for Labor Day weekend. Please let us know if you want to share the
rental accommodations. Each park model has two bedrooms and a pull-out
sleeper couch.
September 12th is our annual Patriot's Day fish fry and calendar
affirmation as well as
the conclusion for our auction to help support the Naturist Action
Committee, AANR Education Foundation, American Nudist Research
Library, and Sistercare, a charity for abused women and their
children. It most likely will be at our property in the Hopkins, SC
area just southeast of Columbia.
September 26th is a Lunchtime Potluck, Pool Party, & Hot Tubbing
in Camden at Terry & Paul's.
