British Naturism's 60th Birthday Challenge

This year British Naturism celebrate its 60th birthday and has issued series of sixty challenges to naturists. Members of BN will have seen the challenges in the Winter 2023 magazine.

 

As naturists, we are always on the lookout for new challenges and experiences that help us connect with our natural surroundings. That's why we are proud to support British Naturism's 60th birthday challenge, and to invite you to join us in celebrating this milestone. Whether you're a seasoned naturist or new to the lifestyle, we encourage you to take part in this exciting challenge and discover the many benefits of naturism for yourself.

While on holiday at BHH Naturist Resort on Fuerteventura in March we made a start on the sixty challenges.

Although we had visited several beaches on Fuerteventura on previous holidays, this time we visited four that we hadn’t been to before.

BHH is a naturist resort, so that one was easy.

Before leaving home we bought BN T-shirts and wore them for a seventy-one minute stroll around Costa Calma.

We didn’t do the full sixty miles, but made a good start by clocking up nearly twenty-four and a half miles: around fourteen miles over four walks along the Jandia beaches and around ten and a half miles over two walks in the Parc Naturel de Jandia.

Now that you've read this we have also completed number 60:

Tell others (in person or in writing) about your participation in the BN 60th Anniversary Challenge.

Back at Western Sunfolk in April we continued the challenge.

32. Undertake painting, decorating or DIY naked (wearing any appropriate safety gear).

Working on the principle that it's easier to dry skin than clothes, we stripped off to wash the caravan.

31.  Undertake gardening naked (wearing any appropriate safety gear) and/or take part in World Naked Gardening Day on 4 May 2024.

On May 4th, we stripped off to do some gardening around our caravan.

While strolling around the site we found a couple of nude statues and were photographed next to them both.

54.  Live entirely naked for a single period of 60 hours.

We remained nude from 1309 on Sunday until 1012 on Wednesday - a total of sixty-nine hours and three minutes.
