I tried skinny dipping at N.J.’s nude beach and it was a bare necessity
NJ.com (digital) – July 17, 2024
and The Sunday Star Ledger (print) – July 21, 2024

The largest news source in New Jersey covers Skinny Dip Day, in both their digital and newspaper formats.

Between… being the top story of the morning on the NJ.com website itself… and additionally being posted to their social media (as a post to their 1.4 million followers on Facebook, and as a linked “story” to their 500k followers on Instagram)… not to mention the physical Sunday newspaper being delivered to tens of thousands+ of homes, and thousands+ of convenience stores across the state… this story landed upon ~100,000+ people’s eyes across the most densely populated state in the country.

Many thanks to the reporter Karim… who is a lovely human… who we also already have enjoyed the beautiful writing of before he decided to visit us!
