| West Coast Gathering 2009:
Join nearly 300 men from throughout North America, the Pacific,
and Europe for all nude, male fun Sept 1-8!
CMEN's West Coast Gathering 2009 will be held September
1-8 in California's Malibu Hills. This all nude gathering will
attract men from throughout North America, the Pacific and Europe to enjoy the fun, Malibu sun, fresh air, camaraderie,
activities, shows and workshops. Several session options are available.
The West Coast Gathering will be held at a conference facility in the scenic heart of the Santa Monica mountains, secluded from the highway, full of trees, and with great views of the surrounding mountains. Amenities include a heated Olympic-size swimming pool, heated dormitory-style
cabins, modern restrooms and hot showers, and several hiking trails. The camp is far from the
city lights, but only 40 miles from Los Angeles.
Among the most popular features of the annual all nude CMEN Gatherings is the now famous, 88 degree
Olympic-sized swimming pool. The large pool has proven a great place to relax in the Malibu sun,
play volleyball, meet new friends, take an aerobics class, and to enjoy several afternoon special
events.
Also popular are the daily themed social hours. Just for
fun, the social hour parties and evening events have a different theme each day. While
nudity is still the overall rule, gathering attendees are encouraged (but not required)
to wear accessories that correspond to the theme for the afternoon social hour and evening.
The social hours are a great time to mingle with new and old friends.

The gatherings also features a variety of workshops, numerous seminars, aerobics, hiking, massage, playshops,
other activities, and of course, just being with nearly
300 friendly, naked men!
As the gatherings are located near Hollywood, they also feature at least two shows nightly,
including game shows, talent shows, contests and special performances.
Evening activities also include country two-step and square dancing, nightly disco dancing, and
bingo.

Come to Malibu in September, 2008 for the great sunny warm weather, the warm naked men, the
friendly atmosphere, the naked hugs, and much more!! We look forward to seeing you in California
in September.
