Cove News
Blessings of the Cove
As we round the bend capping off yet another year, we are about to enter a season of gratitude and giving. It is in this spirit that Cypress Cove would like to re-introduce a Holiday countdown of sorts, affectionately dubbed “Blessings of The Cove”— a period of supporting those in our nudist family who have the greatest need in consideration of trying times.
Through the end of the year, we are inviting Cypress Cove residents and members to write to us and tell us of your need. What do you think would help you most during this difficult time? Each week, we will choose a letter and will respond with assistance and support. You can either drop off a letter to the Main Office, care of Peter Sewall or email Peter at CoveBlessings@cypresscoveresort.com.
Cypress Cove has enjoyed a long history of community support both participating in and spearheading, various events ranging in size and reach. It is the members of our naturist community that has enabled growth and success through the years. As such, we thought it was important to finish the year with full focus on this community—those of you “inside the gate.” It can be hard to ask for help, but please let us know if you have an exceptional need. It is our goal to make your holiday season a little bit brighter.
We already know that the Cypress Cove nudist community has a big heart and a philanthropic spirit, so we’d encourage those of you who are not in need to lend support to your friends and neighbors during this time. If you'd like to help us expand our efforts, you may do so at this link; simply select Blessings of The Cove Donation. We want “Blessings of The Cove” to spill over into all corners of our amazing community.
With thanks and gratitude,
Peter Sewall
General Manager
Blessing of the Cove Nomination & Recipient
Over the weekend, Cypress Cove received an email that resonated deeply with our values. We wholeheartedly endorse the sentiment expressed and wish to extend an invitation to our community members. If you are aware of someone in our midst who could benefit from a bit of additional support, we warmly encourage you to submit a nomination on their behalf. Your participation in this initiative allows us to further strengthen the bonds of care and compassion within our Cypress Cove family.
Subject: Nomination for Blessings of The Cove: Ed Cain
Dear Peter Sewall,
I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to nominate a member of our Cypress Cove community, Ed Cain, as a recipient of the Blessings of The Cove initiative.
Recently, Ed and his family have been facing a significant challenge as he battles diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Despite various treatments, the cancer has proven resistant, leading Ed to participate in a CAR-T transfusion program. This has resulted in frequent and exhausting trips for Ed and his family, spanning over an hour from home to various medical appointments, pain management sessions, outpatient clinics, and multiple hospital stays.
Ed, being the proud individual that he is, initially hesitated to accept financial assistance. However, the unexpected costs associated with this challenging journey, including medical bills, transportation, overnight stays, and daily necessities, have added up. Ed's family has set up a GoFundMe page to help cover these expenses, reflecting the outpouring of support from friends and well-wishers.
Given the generous and caring spirit of Cypress Cove, I believe that nominating Ed Cain for the Blessings of The Cove would provide much-needed support during this trying time. The financial assistance could help alleviate the burden of medical expenses, travel costs, and daily necessities, allowing Ed and his family to focus on his recovery without additional stress.
I understand that there is a formal process for submitting nominations, and I am more than willing to provide any additional information or documentation required to support Ed's nomination. Please let me know if there are any specific details you need or if there is a formal application process.
Thank you for considering Ed Cain as a recipient of the Blessings of The Cove initiative. Our community has always shown tremendous support for its members, and I believe this gesture would make a significant impact on Ed's journey toward recovery.
With gratitude, A Cypress Cove Member
We want to express our gratitude for your thoughtful nomination of Ed Cain for the Blessings of The Cove initiative. It is truly heartening to witness the compassionate spirit of our Cypress Cove community in action.
Having considered Ed's challenging circumstances, Cypress Cove will be making a donation to Ed's GoFundMe account. We recognize the difficulties he and his family are facing, and we are honored to contribute in an effort to alleviate some of the financial strains associated with his medical journey.
Furthermore, we are sharing the GoFundMe link across our community. We believe that by collectively rallying behind Ed, we can make a significant impact and demonstrate the strength and unity that define Cypress Cove.
We feel privileged to be part of a community that cares so deeply, and we look forward to making a positive difference in Ed's life through our collective efforts.

The giving spirit of our community knows no bounds, and this is a wonderful opportunity for us to come together and make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate. While Cypress Cove is not organizing this drive, we are honored to have residents who embody the true spirit of the season.
If you're able, please join us by dropping off a new, unwrapped toy at the main office. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will help make a child's holiday season a little brighter.

Bringing the Cypress Cove Experience to Your Neighborhood
As the temperatures drop and vacation time becomes a distant memory, Cypress Cove Nudist Resort is excited to introduce a new initiative that brings the joys of nude recreation closer to home. We understand that not everyone can escape to our idyllic resort as often as they'd like, which is why we're encouraging fellow nudist to collaborate with local venues and create family-friendly nude nights right in their neighborhoods.
Creating Nude-Friendly Spaces Everywhere: A Collaborative Approach
At Cypress Cove, we believe in fostering a sense of community and inclusivity. Our resort is a haven where individuals and families can embrace the freedom of being clothes-free in a safe and welcoming environment. What's better than wanting to extend that spirit beyond our resort's boundaries and into the local communities of our visitors?
We are urging nudists and naturists to explore partnerships with local venues such as bowling allies, laser tag arcades, gyms, or private event spaces to organize family-friendly nude nights. By working together with these venues, we can create safe and enjoyable spaces for like-minded individuals to connect, relax, and unwind in the liberating atmosphere of nude recreation.
The Benefits of Family-Friendly Nude Nights
-
Promoting Body Positivity: Family-friendly nude nights provide a positive environment for individuals of all ages to embrace and celebrate their bodies, fostering a healthy sense of body positivity.
-
Community Building: Organizing these events creates opportunities for nudists to connect with one another, building a sense of community and support.
-
Educational Opportunities: Local venues can use these events to educate the public about the principles of nudism, dispelling myths and misconceptions.
-
Stress Relief: Nude recreation is known for its stress-relieving benefits. Bringing this experience closer to home allows individuals to enjoy these benefits more regularly.
How to Get Involved
If you're interested in organizing a family-friendly nude night in your area, reach out to local venues and discuss the possibility of hosting such an event.
Let's work together to spread the joy of nude recreation and create family-friendly spaces where everyone can experience the freedom of being clothes-free in a respectful and accepting atmosphere.
