373.0. "Naturism in Geneva" by GVA02::HOWARD () Mon May 25 1992 03:44

    I have been a naturist many years, and have lived in the Geneva 
    Area for 5 of these, but I have never been to any clubs, beaches
    or naturist areas near lake Geneva.  
    
    I am sure they must exist - but they seem to be very discrete. 
    Can anyone give me any information on naturism in this area ?
    
    Thanks,

373.1not much helpSHIRE::RICEUninhibited, yet sadly uninspiredTue May 26 1992 06:3621

	Not sure if I can be of any help.  I, too, am a naturist
	in the Geneva area and I haven't done any nuding apart from
	hanging out on my terrace.  Not really the most public place,
	I realize.

	I have heard that there is a small naturist reserve/beach
	on the other end of the lake in the town of Le Bouvret.  It
	is located between Villeneuve and St. Gingolph.  I've never
	been for a visit, however.

	There is also a gentleman from Cern whose postings are in 
	rec_nude who might be able to help, but I can't remember his 
	name.  I'll try to find it.

	Have you tried the Annecy area?

	Feel free to give me a ring.  I'm in Morgines 1.

373.3French clubs near GenevaMOIRA::FAIMANlight upon the figured leafTue Jun 02 1992 13:0329

Hello Neil,

I read topic 373 in the NATURISM conference, and I looked up my copy of the
"r�pertoire officiel" of the French Naturist Federation.

Gen�ve is in Switzerland, of course, but very close to the French border (e.g.,
at the airport, the runway lies on the border).

I found this under "clubs":

    C S Les H�rissons ("h�risson" is "hedgehog", if I am not mistaken)
    Case Postale 46, 1211 Gen�ve 28
    T 01 Sergy
    
    (The "T" means "landed club" - I suppose it is in a place called "Sergy", 
    in the French d�partement "Ain" - the other side of the border - which is 
    number 01.)

Under "urban activities" I found:

    Piscine des Contamines ("piscine" is "swimming pool")
    rue M. Chauvet
    1204 Gen�ve
    Wednesday 19.00 .. 20.30 (C S Thonon) (I suppose this is the club that 
	organises it.)
