Twelve countries were represented during this event, a real success for the organizers. Participants came from The Netherlands, Finland, India, Indonesia, Sweden, France, Belgium and Poland, from the Dominican Republic, but also from Australia and Turkistan and o fcourse from Germany. Many of then didn’t come especially for participating, but they soon got familiar with the games and joined us during these 10 days. A total of 498 people were present, 62 children or youngsters thereof. 71 people were on a stand by list and were waiting for a positive sign from the management to join our group, but that was impossible due a fully booked campsite. All activities had a great success but the main event was the nude running or walking, where I had the great honor to act as sponsor. 92 adults and 28 youngsters participated to this nude run or nude walking with a distance of 5 or 10 Km, depending on their individual choice. During this activity, 315€ were collected and forwarded to the DLRG (German-Life-Saving-Society). This society supervises the beaches during the whole main season at the Baltic Sea and elsewhere.Their delegates told use that this amount will be used to acquire a backpack with oxygen bottles for various applications. Thanks to Franz and his crew for organizing this competition. That was not very easy and thanks to Klaus and his 165 volunteers, who alternately prepared our evening meals and handled the drink shop. Thanks to Jeannine and her girlfriends for baking more than 400 waffles every evening. Thanks to Günther for supervising all the games and to Elke and Edgar for leaving this wonderful campsite at our disposal. Thanks to all participants who have contributed to the success of this event. Some of them already booked in advance for the next year. I felt free to ask a participant to give us his impressions about his 2nd participation in written form. You will find his report in the next issue of the FOCUS magazine.
