Young Naturists America will have our first gathering at
Juniper Woods Campground in Catskill, NY on the weekend of June 23. The weekend will begin on Friday night with setting up tents, volleyball, s’mores, and a drum circle- a great way to start the weekend!
Plenty of time will be set aside for swimming, body painting, workshops, karaoke, an outdoor movie in the field, water/ pudding fights, hiking, and the all-important adult slip-n-slide! More workshops and activities will be added to the schedule in the next few days.
