I'm kind of my own worst enemy when it comes to making friends

I mean mostly as it applies to life in general but it applies to naturism in the same sort of way. Any time I engage in an interest that makes me happy I get really hyperactive and kind of come off a bit tweaky and eccentric. I have really bad ADHD and some other things but I'm honestly always good intentioned and just want to make friends.

Naturism is still new to me and I like it a lot so of course it makes me excited but I don't want that to be interpreted as weird for any number of reasons. I'm not really worried about going back and being given a hard time or anything, I'm heading to bare oaks tomorrow and it's a pretty accepting place as far as my last experience was, but I mostly kept to myself that time.

I'd like to engage socially more this time but am more afraid I'll feel too awkward and just keep to myself. Last time a few people struck up conversations with me but not many. I'm kind of just hoping it happens more on its own. I'll be there for a week so it'd be nice to hang out with someone for a couple days, especially since it looks like it's going to rain most of the time I'm there.

FCN (Canadian naturist festival) at Bare Oaks - what to expect?

I'll be heading to Bare Oaks tomorrow for a week trip spanning across the weekend, when it turns out that they're holding the FCN at the park. This was just a happy accident and I didn't plan for it.

This is only my second visit to a naturist park (last time was Bare Oaks as well, almost exactly last year) and my first time with any kind of event like this. I searched for information online as to what the event will actually literally consist of but haven't found much including on FCN's own webpage as well as Bare Oaks' event calendar.

I'm curious if anyone here has been to prior events? Were they all held at Bare Oaks? Do they usually follow a certain formula? What were previous events like in your experience?

Curious to hear back on this
