the sauna is “around ninety
degrees” and soon several
people have disappeared
into its steamy interior. A
short while later they

emerge, dripping sweat, and-:

plunge into the pool. In
winter, ] am told, they roll in
the snow instead.

Van Tan’s seven acres are
owned cooperatively.

Membership - $50 a year
for individuals; $70 for’
families - confers a fringe
benefit, well worth con-
sidering. Members of nudist
clubs are automatically
welcome at other nudist
clubs across North America,
Hawaii and Europe as
overnight campers.

Many nudist camps are
within a short drive of major
tourist attractions. Just 11
miles out of Seattle there is a
370 acre nudist camp with a
seven acre lake, complete
with free canoes. Depending
on the facilities of a given
club, guests are charged
from $4 to $20 a night. A
fairly primitive camp in
Hawaii charges $10 a night.

“My wife made a deal with

me,” says Dave. “I'll spend * j

two weeks at the nudist club
in Hawaii. If I like it, TU join
Van Tan. Lf I don’t like it,
don't ever talk to me about
joining again,’ she said. She
liked it!”

Too, the expense of
buying a vacation wardrobe
is largely obviated. although
as one young wife pointedly

remarked, “We DO go out
*

for supper, you know!

With hote! ac-
commodations as high as
$100 a night in some cities,

I'm thinking.....

Concerned over birth

Parents for Positive
Beginnings is a group of
concerned parents that was
formed on the North Shore
in the Spring of this year.
The group originally met to
discuss their birthing and
post-partum expericaces
with Lions Gate Hospital. It
was a time of sharing their
likes and dislikes about their

experiences. As the
meetings progressed they
included case room nursce-
midwives, maternity and

casual nurses, public health
nurses and staff, general
practitioners, obstetricians.
and pediatricians.

Through these mectngs
great interest has  becn
generated with positive
results in the following
arcas: a clearer un-

derstanding of what and
what is not hospital policy,
how the hospital ts mecting

the public needs. doctors
and nurses voicing their
opinions, childbirth
educators and the Public
Health Department being
more informed to help the
expectant parents.

The group has grown to be
respected amongst the
hospital administration and
staff, health care
professionals and the public.
The activities of the group
and the hospitals and the
various groups throughout
the Lower Mainland and the
Northwestern United States.

The group prepared a
questionnaire and is secking
information from parents
and health care professionals
who are interested in
changing policies in ob-
stetrical care and having
input into the future Ob-
stetrical Wing renovations.
Those wishing a copy of the
questionnaire may call

Marla Wyer at 987-5084 or
Vicki Lambert at 986-2932.
Parents for Positive
Beginnings will meet in the
auditorium of the hospital,
Monday, September 28,
1981 at 7:30 p.m. Please give
Marla or Vicki of Parents for
Positive Beginnings a call if
you are interested in at-

tending this meeting.
