Murray Nash was awarded the prestigious Pat Trott trophy for third time at 2024 AGM
At the Annual General Meeting of the New Zealand Naturist Federation (NZNF), held on December 30, 2024, at the Pineglades Naturist Club, long-time contributor Murray Nash officially stood down from all NZNF Executive positions.
Murray has been a cornerstone of the Federation's digital presence, serving as the NZNF Internet Coordinator and later as the Digital Platforms Coordinator (DPC) intermittently since 1998. His dedicated service and commitment to naturism in New Zealand have left an indelible mark on the community.
To honor his exceptional contributions, Murray was awarded the prestigious Pat Trott Trophy for the third time. This coveted accolade recognises individuals or clubs that have gone above and beyond in providing outstanding service to naturism in New Zealand. Murray previously received this honor in 2010 and 2020, and his latest recognition highlights his enduring impact on the naturist movement.
While stepping back from executive responsibilities, Murray remains committed to supporting the new DPC, Dion, and offering his expertise to any club or individual seeking assistance. As Murray humorously remarked, "Some might say my skills are limited, but there you go."
The New Zealand Naturist Federation extends its heartfelt gratitude to Murray for his decades of service and looks forward to his continued contributions in a mentoring and advisory capacity.
Murray also received two certificates, one to go with the Pat Trott trophy and other for his services, again, as the Digital Platforms Coordinator
