INA Members?

Felix · #1 12-22-2002, 08:35 PM

Hey, I was just wondering how many of you out there are actually members of the INA, and if so, how do you guys like your memberships? I'm a college aged nudist looking to go to some resorts next year, and I'm kinda wondering as to whether or not a membership would be a viable option for me yet. Any response would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

I have been reading and sometimes posting on this forum since the day it started. I just joined the INA about a month ago, mainly to help support what they are doing.
I do like looking at all the photos they have, and boy they have alot. I've just seen a small percent of them so far. I do wish I knew where they were taked, because it would be more meaningful.

I was an INA member for a year and I would still be a member if my income had allowed this year.

I was very sceptical and took a close critical look at them and they came out smelling like a rose. All their pictures are in good taste and they don't allow links to sites that cast naturism in a bad light.

INA is not perfect, but that is because it is so new and it needs to grow a lot more in order to a bigger impact on society. One of INA's goals is to reward nudist resorts that have an open door policy toward singles and that have agressive programs to attract and retain teens and college age people.

I do think that INA would be improved if its leadership grows to include an elected governing board. The Naturist Society has an organizational structure that INA would do well to consider emulating.

As soon as I get back on my feet jobwise, I will renew my membership.

Perhaps INA adminisitrators can post a list of the nudist resorts that offer a discount on daily admission with an INA card.

Trailscout,
How did you like their magazine? Or did you get the membership without that?

I can't see joining just now because I don't have an interest in looking at nude photos. I'd rather just get the mag if it is something worth looking at.

I'd like to know what clubs take the INA card too.

I joined and have continued to renew my INA membership. First, I want to support this organization by putting my money toward their efforts. I have enjoyed the magazine too. There are quite a good selection of articles and news information. I suggest that if you are a naturist/nudist, your support will help INA grow to be an increasingly influential force for nudism. (They didn't pay nor encourage me to say this, it's just what I believe). [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Thanks DNat. We're working hard toward the goal
of getting nudist resorts to accept the INA
membership card for discounts.

I'm going on my 3rd year as an INA member. It was through this website that I got into social nudism. They are doing a great job of trying to get the word out to people about the joys of naturism. As long as I can afford to do so, I will continue as a member here. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif[/img]

I haven't joined INA yet because it, so far, does not have that many benefits. As of now, the only things that they offer that you cannot get on other sites are the nudist pictures and the Nudist News video clips.

When I can see that the INA is actually doing tangible events, then I may eventually join. Of course, I am still putting off joining TNS for economic reasons. though I may make an attempt to join sometime in the nude year.

I haven't joined INA because I don't want stuff sent to my parents' house that is obviously naturist related just because they don't know or understand. Hopefully soon I will be out on my own...but until that day comes or INA tells us that everything will be shipped discretly then I can't risk it. I also want to join a large, well known group like TNS or AANR for the discounts you get with your card but I haven't yet for the same reasons and for lack of a lot of money...although it's mostly because I don't want things coming to my parents house in non-discrete packaging.
