Buckeye Bares is not a party or sexual organization. We simply enjoy nudism and like to be nude. We adhere to the principles and philosophies of the American Association for Nude Recreation and The Naturist Society fully. If you are looking for anything other than social nudity please go elsewhere.

Alcoholic Beverages:
Alcoholic beverages are permitted in moderation. Please act responsibly with regard to the consumption of alcohol.

Body Jewelry:
Body jewelry is permitted. However, body jewelry worn simply to be provocative is not acceptable.

Photography / Imaging Devices:
Photography or cameras of any type are not allowed (This includes cell phones with picture capabilities.) at Buckeye Bares events.
If pictures are desired and requested by the participants they will be taken by the Buckeye Bares staff only and only after a photo release form is signed. Only tasteful pictures that positively portray nudism and the participants will be allowed.
No pictures are to be taken under any circumstances of any participant under the age of 18 in the nude.
Participants who request pictures to be taken will be supplied copies in the format the pictures were taken. (digital pictures will be emailed or supplied on disk, print pictures will be supplied as prints) On occasion the Buckeye Bares staff may ask participants if a copy of pictures may be kept for web use or promotion. In these cases if the participant agrees, a written release will be requested.
Please keep in mind that photography is a very sensitive area among nudists, and extra caution is needed.

Children:
Children must be supervised at all times by a parent or legal guardian. Parents or legal guardians are responsible for the behavior of their children, and liable for any damages caused by their children.
Parents are at all times responsible for the supervision, safety, and behavior of their children.
No adult, other than a parent, may ever be alone with a child.
Those under 18 are always given the option of clothing optional vs. nude.
Buckeye Bares' primary concern is your youths comfort and safety. If at any time we feel that this could be compromised we will consult with the parent or guardian present and with them decide on the appropriate course of action.

Family-Oriented:
We seek to maintain a wholesome family atmosphere at our events. Innocent expression of affection among family members and friends is acceptable but overt sexuality is not. "If conduct, affection, and language is not appropriate in the presence of children it can be considered inappropriate at any time."

Gawking:
Gawking is considered inappropriate and will not be tolerated.

Glass:
Management prefers that no glass containers be brought to events. No glass is permitted in the pool areas.

Illegal Drugs:
Illegal drugs are not permitted at any event.

Nudity:
Buckeye Bares is a nudist group. Newcomers will obviously be given considerations to become comfortable with the nudist lifestyle. Nudity is mandatory for all events, unless logistically impossible. Youth under 18 are always clothing optional.

Pets:
No pets are allowed at events.

Towels:
For hygiene reasons, always sit on a towel when nude. Never sit on someone else’s towel. Nudist etiquette requires everyone to carry a towel for sitting purposes and personal hygiene. Please bring two towels to events, one for sitting, one for drying off.

Photo ID:
Photo ID will be required for all event participants. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian with positive ID.
We respect the right to privacy. Every participant’s right to privacy requires that his identity be held in strictest confidence.

Please note that we may update or change policies as needed and you should ask about any concerns you may have.
