WCU at Mazo Beach Today

Today, June 15, a large number of Christians with WCU are on the Mazo Beach parking lot and the one-mile gravel road leading to the DNR's nude beach near Mazomanie, Wisconsin. The Christians are preaching, holding signs, witnessing one-on-one, and handing out salvation tracts.

Last evening, Pastor Ralph Ovadal and Attorney James Donohoo appeared on the Fox News Network program "Hannity and Colmes" to discuss the State of Wisconsin's creation and funding of a nude beach where, according to DNR documents, up to 1,000 adults from around the nation go nude, including in front of children and teenagers.

Up until recently, DNR officials have said there is no law against public nudity. Then, after WCU showed that claim to be a lie, DNR officials claimed that the Dane County district attorney will not prosecute persons for appearing nude in public at Mazo Beach even if the DNR enacted an administrative rule banning nudity. WCU has also exposed that lie using the DNR's own records, so now DNR officials are claiming, through DNR attorney James Kurtz, that the law against public nudity is "situational." (World Net Daily, June 6, 2002, "State joins tug of war over nude beach.")

"It is reprehensible that DNR officials are now claiming that the law of the land is not to be uniformly and fairly applied to all citizens but that exceptions can be arbitrarily carved out for certain elite groups with the right pull.

"How long will the DNR persist in supporting public nudity on public land in front of children? Perhaps they should take a cue from the problems currently besetting the Roman Catholic Church. For years, certain individuals in the church hierarchy covered for sexual perverts at the expense of helpless children, steadfastly maintaining that no wrong doing was taking place. Those children grew up and began to tell their story, and now the entire Catholic Church has been devastated by the years' long cover-up. The children of Mazo Beach will grow up one day also and the full truth of the effect of that government-sponsored adult entertainment center on the Wisconsin River will be known."
—Pastor Ralph Ovadal, Director, Wisconsin Christians United
