Calgary Nude Recreation is a body-positive, pro-nude organization. We recognize that there have historically been two styles of naturism, one which is "nude-mandatory" and one which is "clothing-optional".
Since mid-2019, our events have used the "clothing-optional" dress code. We promote empowering the individual to make the best choice for themselves. We encouraged anyone to attend whatever they feel most comfortable wearing. We do not believe in splitting up families or couples because of different comfort levels, and we actively encourage clothed partners to join their spouses at our events. Occasionally some people choose wear fun clothes like mermaid tails in the pool. The ultimate goal is to have fun, what someone is wearing is simply not a factor to us.
The majority of participants attend our events for the opportunity to engage in social nudity, and will likely be fully nude regardless of the dress code.
Clothing-optional events empower people to make the choice on what's best for themselves. We encourage people who appreciate our values and wish to experience a body-positive event from the safety and comfort of their clothes to join us. Partners of members are especially invited to join us. Persons attending for the wrong reasons will be asked to leave.
Rules around electronic devices capable of photography remain in effect at clothing-optional events -- even though you may have pockets, your phone (etc) must still be kept out of the event space.
