Trade Association For Nude Recreation


While focusing on the promotion of nudism through effective public relations and seeking to work with a different group of naturist and nudist organizations, FKK has also pushed for higher standards of business practice at landed facilities. The ASA formed the Trade Association for Nude Recreation at their 1987 Club Owners Meeting, a group long-nurtured by James Hadley of Florida. TANR was to serve the business interests of all entrepreneurs concerning nude recreation. At TANR's 1990 business assembly, FKK was asked to volunteer by Hadley, and was then elected to take a turn as TANR's administrative agent. This meant that for the next number of years TANR's "headquarters" would be in Oshkosh. http://aceathome.org/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=freenudebeach.xyz/tag/nudism-in-publicnudist-picsnudist-pics/ was happy to oblige this service because it supported TANR's attempts to define and raise the aims of fkk clubs and resorts. Stephen Payne, then one of the owners of Desert Shadows Inn in Palm Springs, California, shared FKK' concern for landed clubs standards. Too many nudist clubs were supplying shoddy service, filthy lodging, and fair food, and there was no means to hold them to any industry standard. At the November 16-19, 1992 TANR assembly at Cypress Cove in Florida, Payne challenged the naturist and naturist business leaders there to improve their standards and to stop catering to the easy, fast cash of sleazy lingerie shows, nude beauty pageants, and wet T-shirt contests. Payne, and co-owners Linda Payne, Ray Lovato, and Sue Lovato subsequently went on to create a paradigm of excellence in naturist resort company practice with Desert Shadows.
