The FCN Club/Business Membership

This membership classification has been specifically designed to meet the needs of clubs and businesses. Please see the chart below which outlines the benefits of membership.

It is important to note that we continue to promote all naturist clubs/businesses. Our purpose is to promote naturism, not just the interest of our member clubs. However, we also want to give extra support to those clubs/business who help & support us in our efforts.

The FCN's purpose is not to dictate club policy. We seek to promote naturism and provide a common link between naturists.

Free listings are available to Canadian Naturist Clubs and Businesses. See the Benefit Chart for differences.

What is the FCN's Purpose in doing this?

To provide for naturists an autonomous Canadian organization which shall not be a subjucated part of any other organization.
To foster belief in the essential wholesomeness of the human body and the health of mind and spirit which grows in those accustomed to see and respect the human body as created.
To promote optimum health through complete contact of the body with the natural agents of sun, air and water accompanied by a holistic approach to enlightened nutrition, physical activity, mental stimulation and social interaction in an environment kept as free as possible from the pollutants and stressful components of modern society.
To establish a greater understanding of the ecology of our environment and of the place, role and responsibilities of the human species within this ecology.
To share the enjoyment of naturist living with individuals and groups of like interest and together provide a united voice for the expression and extension of social naturism.
To assist sincere naturist groups in their acquisition of land and facilities for the practice of naturist living.
