Dear Reader,
The first Athena magazine of the year announces spring lustily.
Finally that sunshine again, longer days, the first green buds, delicate blossoms ... They lure you outside for a walk or bike ride in nature.
We already tested out the cool ZeBraroute for you.
We also interviewed our most loyal day-trippers and chatted with the Just Married Band that is touring from Helios to Ossendrecht in July. In this issue, you'll discover even more fun things happening this summer. And we take you exploring the Gorges du Verdon and the Cantal.
The season is in the starting blocks
Our inspiring magazine drops in your mailbox next week.

On July 22, 'Just Married Band' will be on stage at ATHENA Helios and on July 23 they will play their only concert in the Netherlands at Athena Ossendrecht.
Just Married Band is the pop folk duo from Mâcon (France) and consists of lovers Céline and Jérémy.
The duo was formed on the occasion of their wedding.
"The pop-folk duo of traveling lovers"
With a distinct taste for Tarantino movie soundtracks and a contemporary pop/folk repertoire reworked in a western guiguette style, the pair of musicians will take you on a journey full of surprises.
Jérémy on guitar, sometimes acoustic, sometimes electric, also equipped with an elaborate electronic drum system, makes heads shake and bodies tremble to tunes the pair has carefully selected.
Céline's authentic and distinctive voice carries you away, shakes you up and leaves you with sweet memories.
Their commitment and joyful silliness make a performance endearing and addictive.
Naturism
Being naturists for many years, it is quite normal for them to play concerts in naturist places.
They share the values of self-respect, respect for others and the environment, and, of course, nudity.
The performance is the same as a classical concert, but naked.

The Athena Team
There is a lot of fun and interesting reading again in the winter edition of our magazine.
How we do business as sustainably as possible and how we want to do even better in the future. How enthusiastic our warm-hearted volunteers were again on the work weekends. How the High Fens invite you for a brisk winter walk. How pleasant it is at the naturist mini-resort Sea Nat on the Belgian coast. And how fresh vegetables straight from the fields of happy farmers end up on your plate.
Along with this edition, you will receive, first in the mail, the new Athena flyer.
Feel free to pass it on to friends or family.

For a new program on VTM, they would like to come and film a few days at our holiday park, naturist camping Athena, in Ossendrecht. They would like to visualize how things are going at our place, get naturism out of hiding and, most of all, bring you stories.
After some nice conversations we are convinced that VTM will make a great program in which naturism is portrayed in a beautiful and honest way. The filming will of course be discreet and those who do not want to be in the picture will not be shown.
So for this we are looking for you.
Enter for a chance to win a free weekend in our new FRAMILY *
Who would like to be featured (discuss how you will be filmed) and what stories can they bring? Feel free to email us if you have a story you'd like to share and we'll deliver it to the crew. The goal is to have everything run as much as possible as it runs every day. The host will stay for a few days, participate in the activities and come and have a chat with you.
Filming will take place in the spring or early summer. As soon as the dates are finalized, we will notify you.
We are already very curious to hear your stories!
👇👇👇
Just write me/us down
-> then we contact you, have an informal talk, make something cool out of it and show you how fun, liberating and normal naturism is....
If it's not for you/you then, that's absolutely no problem.
* From the candidates who participate in the program, a free weekend will be raffled off.
Weekend at ATHENA Ossendrecht (Friday to Monday) in our new FRAMILY accommodation. This way you can immediately introduce your friends or family to Athena 😉 . Dates to be determined in consultation, depending on availability and after September 7.
Every winter during work weekends at Athena, enthusiastic groups of members tinker, prune, clear leaves and "vandalize.
With no strings attached, they make sure that everything looks tiptop in their park.
Such a day or weekend working together outside and ending with a delicious meal often results in new friendships in addition to satisfaction.
And our great gratitude. Toppers!
Care to attend next time (again)? Fine!
