Naturist Legacy Park overview
Naturist Legacy Park is a nudist park located 35 minutes northeast of Winnipeg's Perimeter Highway (it's 10 kilometres east of Libau, Manitoba on Provincial Road 317). The 80-acre property was vacant farmland when Naturist Legacy Inc. took possession on October 1, 2010. "So how did we go from absolutely nothing to something quite amazing in just two short years? Countless hours of 'outside the box' thinking and planning produced a solid business plan for a naturist park that inspired enough confidence in our members to both fund it and build it. We owe money only to ourselves, with not one thin dime owed to any external bank or lender. Everything we have, including our new land, is fully ours — paid in full. Except for the help of a few necessary tradespeople, every hour of labour that has gone into our park has been volunteered by our own members" (from "Manitoba's Naturist Legacy is open for business").
"Naturist Legacy is a large naturist park with a small campground component. Naturist Legacy's business model is not patterned after our old location, which was essentially a large campground that catered to nudists. We do not actively market camping spaces. We do not need to have a larger campground to survive.... Rather than a campground, we are instead a naturist park first and foremost. We are in the social nudism/naturism business, which is a much broader vision than just the campground business. Our corporation exists to create and hold safe an appropriate location where people can come and practice naturism. We wish to limit the 'footprint' of our buildings, campsites and other infrastructure in order to maintain as much of our land's natural beauty as possible" (from Naturist Legacy's Business Fundamentals Guide PDF).
Naturist Legacy Inc. overview
Naturist Legacy Inc. was created in 2010 after the owners of the campground that Crocus Grove Sun Club had called home for 40 years unexpectedly ended nude use. Crocus Grove Sun Club officially evolved into Naturist Legacy Inc. on September 11, 2010. "Naturist Legacy's business structure is somewhat unique. It's not a 'mom and pop' club, a co-op or a commercial, for-profit corporation. We are instead a membership-based non-profit (non-share) corporation. No one 'owns' Naturist Legacy. It's governed and managed by a board of directors (elected by the membership), who are in turn governed by the corporation's by-laws" (from "Manitoba's Naturist Legacy is open for business").
"Naturist Legacy's mission is to provide continuity and stability and endurance for landed social nudism in Manitoba. That mission is both our present and our future. The vision behind this mission has brought us to where we are today. It has been instrumental in the formation of our business model. We are confident that both our vision and our business model will take us successfully into the future" (from Naturist Legacy's Business Fundamentals Guide PDF).
