Northern California Mid-Summer Gathering 2023

Plan now to join CMEN celebrating the warm, clothes free days of summer at the Northern California Mid-Summer Gathering July 24 – 30, 2023, at a secluded 400 acre retreat center in California’s scenic Sierra Foothills east of Auburn.

NOTE:  NOTE:  Proof of full Covid-19 vaccinations, with booster(s), will be required to enter the camp, NO exceptions.

This all male, all nude event will include pool activities, scenic hikes, a variety of seminars and workshops, themed social hours, evening shows, dances, parties, lots of nude men and MUCH MORE!

CMEN’s first Northern California Gathering, held in August 2014, was a great success with 100 men attending. The following Northern California Gatherings were also a huge success with about 125 men attending each one. We made new friends and had a great time together.

We think you will greatly enjoy CMEN’s Northern California Mid-Summer Gathering!

Full Registration Includes:

• Six days of all male, all nude, summer fun;
• Accommodations include a choice of semi private (2 person or 4 person) rooms, bunk cabins or camping;
• Large in-ground heated swimming pool;
• Friendly relaxing atmosphere;
• All Meals & Snacks;
• Full Schedule of activities, including: workshops, mountain hiking, pool activities, volleyball, pup mosh, themed social hours, evening entertainment, dancing and parties.

Just for fun, the social hour parties and evening events have a different theme each day. While nudity is still the overall rule, gathering attendees are encouraged (but not required) to wear accessories that correspond to the theme for the social hour and evening. Social hour “costumes” can range from a simple cap or hat to the outlandish. 

Themes for the Mid-Summer Gathering 2023

Mo – 7/24 – Hats & Boas

Tu – 7/25 – Mardi Gras

We – 7/26 – Drag Night

Th – 7/27 – Leather Night 

Fr – 7/28 – Red Hot Night

Sa – 7/29 – Rainbow Night

Space is limited, you’ll want to register early, as previous fall events have sold out. Don’t be left out! There will be no registration at the site, and all men must be at least 21 years old to attend this event.

Come to Northern California in July for the great sunny warm weather, the warm naked men, the friendly atmosphere, the naked hugs, and much more!

The Northern California Mid-Summer Gathering is hosted by CMEN, an international social organization for gay and bisexual men who enjoy nude social and recreational activities.
