  2. Every member at an event will be naked.  However, footwear is encouraged and for those who may have temporary health problems are exempted from this rule and may be partially dressed.

  6. The host will obtain a membership list from the club prior to the date of his event to ensure only members and their guests are attending.
  7. The club’s success is measured by its members’ ability to host house parties.  If you are in a position to host, you are encouraged to do so.
