White Tail Park Question

[Shunyata]

Hey guys/gals, I am fairly new to these parts so I first want to say; hello!!

Now the reason I am posting a question about a recreational park at this board is because I am curious to know if (a) any of you have been to WTP and (b) If there are a few younger naturists there.

I was first introduced to nudism when I was 17, and not living too far from WTP, I called to get some info. Of course, I found out I couldn’t come without an adult for another year. I was also told there weren’t too many in that age group there with most being in their 30’s and above.

Well, its been a few years, during which I’ve put aside the desire I had to visit such a place, but that interest is starting to re-surface again. I am curious to see if things have changed.

Just for a disclaimer; Its not that I want to interact strictly with people my own age (23) as I love talking to people of any age – having friends between age 12 and 63 – But it does make the transition a bit easier when there are those around you that you can directly relate to on at least one more common level beyond nudity.

Any words would be appreciated!

It is a typical nudist park with many "established" nudists. But there are also a few younger nudists there as well. In fact, there is one who posts here occasionally who is in his 20s (25ish?)

Please come by. We welcome you. Ny the way, I am a three year member.

I will echo what Bob has said, and as a member for more than 10 years, White Tail Park has undergone the cycle of many teens and young people to fewer teens and young people, and it appears to be back on the upswing. But the basic conundrum here is as I posted on another thread. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Many 20-something individuals are reluctant to come out to an established park because there aren't many 20-something individuals to hang with, thereby assuring that there WON'T be many 20 something individuals since they aren't showing up either (waiting for you)....and so on and so on, so the whole exercise becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. The answer?? Don't wait for someone else, find a like minded friend and come on out...if you enjoy it, then tell more friends and soon there will be more and more of you. ETC ETC ETC. See you at the park.

Well put, Walt. And the younger crowd does seem to be taking over.

Bob S,

Thank you for the welcome. I gave the park a ring last week and checked to see how the scene was. It was relieving to hear that it was back on the rise with youth. As mentioned above, the last time I called it was made known there werent many (that werent part of families) that attended.

Walt,

Finding someone like minded to befriend and then one day possibly go with is part of why I'm here! Excellent synopsis of group behavior.. very true.

Travis,

Cool, I'll look out for ya when I go down.

Hi Shunyata,
It is now a year later and I was wondering if you ever made it out to the park. If you did, what were your thoughts?
