Scope and Content

This collection is rich with information in the form of newsletters from other Gay Naturists clubs all over the United States. It has its own file of minutes, programs, flyers, and other important information of the local club called M.A.N. (Males Au Naturel).

History or Bio

In 1984 Males Au Naturel was born out of a need for a local club of naturists. It was born in the summer of 1984 with a formal structure, officers, a steering committee and formal meetings. They held events at Hauska House, two camping weekends at Oneida, beach trips, cookouts, visits to nudist resorts (straight and gay), and regular monthly meetings.
