Who are Nudists?

We are everyone. We may be your doctor, your neighbor, or the clerk at the grocery store. We are just average people who enjoy the peace and comfort that social nudity brings us. We are young, old, tall, short, fat or skinny. Just pain folks from everywhere.

Welcome to West Penn Naturists. WPN, founded in 1981, is a family nudist swim club located in Pittsburgh, Pa. We gather at a well heated indoor pool for swimming, sharing good food, and socializing. Membership is comprised of couples, families, and singles.

Have you ever been curious to try nudism? WPN is the place to come discover what you've been missing. You won't find a friendlier bunch of folk. Bring a towel to sit on, beverage of your choice, a folding chair, and a snack to share.

On average, you'll find 30-50 members and guests present, though some nights there are more, ranging in age from toddlers to grand parents. You can join in a game of water volleyball, swims laps in an Olympic size pool, enjoy the sauna, use the tanning bed, allow a professional masseuse to melt your tensions, or just find a quiet corner to relax in. There is always a buffet table loaded with snacks and covered dishes brought to share. All in a non-sexual family atmosphere. You will be amazed at how spending an evening with us can make a bone chilling Pittsburgh winter just a little more bearable. Swims are on selected Saturday evenings, from 8pm till midnight. Be sure to check the schedule for theme nights, theme dinners, and fun contests.
Once summer rolls around, we plan weekend camping trips together at landed nudist clubs. 

Come join us for an evening of fun, food, and exercise, in a safe nudist setting.


Quoting from Genesis, "They were nude but they were not ashamed." Furthermore, because God created it, "The human body can remain nude and uncovered and preserve its splendor and its beauty." 

- Pope John Paul II

"Is the swimsuit really a product of a higher intelligence, or is it something concocted out of a society so out of touch with it's own humanity that it actually devises ways to become less human?"

from Diary of a Nudist

 

A GREAT ARTICLE, "GETTING NAKED"

LET'S SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!

In the past we've sent care packages to a Marine Aviation unit in Iraq, stationed near Fallujah, based in California, and also to a group of female soldiers in Afghanistan.  You can view their thank you letters here and here.

This swim season we will again be collecting for our troops to show them our support. They sacrifice so much to protect our freedoms. Keep checking back to find out details for our collections this year.

For more ideas on what items to bring to a collection for our troops, check here.

 Here's another great way to show the troops how much you appreciate them. Click here to send them a card.

 

Hello,

 So sorry for the late reply.

 Things have been so busy on the USS Enterprise these last months with training for the upcoming 6 month deployment.

 Wanted you all to know how much I appreciated the box of goodies that you sent me.  I shared it with my fellow sailors. 

 It is a real morale booster for me and my buddies to know that there are people out there that appreciate what we do for our country.

 Thanks again,

ABHAN Andrew A.
