What we’re about
The primary mission of Friends of Bates Beach (FOBB) is to maintain and legalize the traditional clothing-optional beaches in Santa Barbara County. We want to meet other like-minded people who want to help us with beach picnics and rallies and occasionally distribute literature in town.
A lot goes on in the background to allow us to sit at the beach on a towel. It is not really free.
We are a non-profit corporation and to cover our costs we ask for a $10 per year dues from our members, effective Jan 1, 2022. This is the price of one takeout meal per year! Larger donations are also appreciated. We thank you for your support.
You can pay on the home page of our website at www.friendsofbatesbeach.org, where you can also find more information about the group.
This meetup site will list many of the upcoming events, dinners, phone meetings, etc. We welcome all your first-time questions too, as we know you will probably have many of them!
