Here is a web page for a newly formed state owned nude beach in the
Eugene Oregon area formerly known as "Bring Beach" and now known as
Glassbar Island.

http://www.glassbarisland.org

Here are the rules that people must follow when visiting this nude
beach.


http://www.glassbarisland.org/tour.html#guidelines

Now for the dos and don’ts, while we all hate rules out here, there
are a few taboos.

* Gentlemen, respect our ladies. Anyone that acts improperly
towards our women will be expelled in a flash so just don’t do it.
* This is a gay friendly and straight friendly environment. If you
have any problems with this STAY AWAY! We do not and will not tolerate
any “hostile” actions by ANYONE. We will descend on you like the wrath
of God so just stay away.
* Also we enforce the rule that you tote out what you bring in. In
other words, don’t leave your trash when you depart.

Since the property belongs to the OPRD of the State of Oregon, there
are a few of their rules to follow:
* No camping on the island and surrounding properties.
* No fires except at the firepit by the tables at the front
crossing and at the plum tree on the island. During extremely dry
weather - no fires anywhere.
* No cutting of live trees, shrubs or wildflowers on the island
and adjacent properties.


What is interesting is what it DOESN'T SAY. It doesn't say NO SEX.

Well, you might say, that should be obvious. But the problem with
that is before the state took it over, this beach when it was known as
"Bring Beach" was full of people having outdoor sex. Especially for
gays it was THE place to go in the area to get a little "outdoor
action."

So, why not a quick clarification given the beach's history? Something
like "obviously sexual behavior will not be tolerated anywhere on the
beach?

Could it be because they hope even with the state now owning the
property to maintain not only the character of the area as being a
nude beach, but also to maintain it's sexual nature as well?

By the way, the people of the area hopes that this will become
Oregon's third official nude beach. Rooster Rock which is one of the
two official nude beaches in the Portland Oregon Area continues to
have problems with gays using it. Things at Sauvie Island are much
better though unfortunately like at most designated nude beaches in
America (although such places are rare and getting rarer) problems are
still all to frequent.


Given the history of the property the Glassbar Nude Beach volunteers
need to make it Absolutely Clear that sexual activity will not be
tolerated there. Otherwise they will lose use of this property as a
Nude Beach.

I personally don't see that people having outdoors sex is hurting anyone that doesn't with to participate in outdoors sex themselves. Much like being nude at a beach.

It can be a distraction and inconsiderate to others....much like loud music,
burning trash when your neighbor is having a cookout, leaving Christmas
lights on all year, parking junk cars in your front yard, or having your dog
bark all night, or doing your leaf blowing at 7 in the morning.

Most of these activities are fine, it's a question of time, place and
appropriateness.

There are some that want a quiet afternoon reading at the nude beach.

There are some that bring their kids.

Just think about others. Social nudity is about being with others. Being
with others requires one to be considerate.
