LITERARY Appearance by Bill
Sure, Eugene hosted the Summer Olympics track and fi eld trials a few years
back, and some athletes competing likely had it in their mind to at least
try to break world records in their respective sports, like pole vaulting and
such, and maybe a few even did, and a lot of spectators sat in the stands and
watched, eating hot dogs and sipping on juice, but let’s face it, as a species
we’ve been swimming nekkid just as long as we’ve been running around in
circles, so let’s take our hats off — and everything else we got on — and give
a big old bare-assed salute to the Willamettans, who on Saturday, July
10, at noon will attempt to enter the Guinness Book of World Records at their
Marcola family nudist resort when they disrobe and plunge into the water
as part of the “AANR Largest Skinny-Dip Across North America,” the
former record having been set in 2009 when 13,674 totally nude folks in 139
locations took the simultaneous dive. This is serious stuff, people, and if you
need to know more about the courageous attempt, take a dip into the group’s
web site at www.willamettans.com
