OLYMPIANS GUIDELINES
Who We Are:
The OLYMPIANS is a social group for gay men who enjoy the freedom which comes with
nudity and the gathering of a group of Naked Men in a welcoming, non-threatening
environment.
Organization:
The business affairs of the club are managed by a Steering Committee which meets on a
monthly basis. The Steering Committee consists of those members who have taken an
active part in the organization by hosting functions or by participating in the management of
the group.
Activities:
The social activities of the group are the responsibility of the individual members (the
hosts), who upon becoming a member of The OLYMPIANS guarantee that they will host or
co-host an event within a year of becoming a paid member. (NOTE: If you live in a small
apartment/condo, or if you wouldn't be willing to fill your house with nice, Naked men,
you could Co-Host with someone at one of the larger events.) After that, a random
choosing system goes into effect for that member. The host/co-host determines the rules
of the function (i.e., smoking, sexual activity, etc.), time span of the event, type of function
(potluck, catered dinner, dessert, etc.), and whether the function is restricted to members
only. The host may place a limit on the number of attendees, due to space limitations.
Members are notified of the function and host's rules through the newsletter. Attendees are
expected to abide by the hosts' rules.
NOTE: The "house rules" of a host will NOT override the OLYMPIANS "Rules Of
Conduct", but work WITH them.
Newsletter:
A monthly Newsletter is published and sent out to the paid members, usually by the 10th of
every month.
Dues:
Members who have paid their annual dues are members in good standing. Members who
have allowed their membership to lapse for more than one year for any reason may be
reinstated, at the discretion of the Steering Committee, by payment of their annual dues.
The membership fee is $20 for each member. Memberships are renewed annually.
Members will receive a reminder to pay their dues 30 days prior to renewal. If dues are not
paid within 30 days after the renewal date, membership will be discontinued. Membership
may be reinstated upon subsequent payment of dues, retroactive to the date when
payment was due. Dues are to be used for expenditures incurred by the organization.
Confidentiality:
Each member of the group must maintain the privacy and anonymity of all other members.
Phone numbers and information about other members of club activities are not to be given
to any person or persons outside the membership, not to any other organizations with the
following explicit exceptions: a)Recruiting a prospective new member or
b)Communicating with other recognized gay nudist organizations. Members found in
violation of this confidentiality will be expelled from the group.
New Members:
The prospective member can attend his first event as either a guest of a current member
or as a guest of the Steering Committee (with the Steering Committee having first received
contact either in writing or through e-mail or voice mail). A guest fee of $5.00 will be
collected at the door in either case. A prospective member, after attending once as a
guest, will be invited to join the group at the discretion of the Steering Committee. If the
guest chooses not to, he may attend a second time as a guest (again paying $5.00). If he
chooses to attend a third time, he would be required to pay the dues and become a
member. The Steering Committee may decline membership to a prospective member for
any reason. That reason does not have to be disclosed to anyone outside of the Steering
Committee. Your Name, Address, Phone # and Email are required by us for you to attend
as a Guest. Information on an event will not be released without this information from
you.
