Two hundred skinny-dippers were on hand in New River on Saturday to try to set the Guinness world record for the most people skinny dipping at one time.

The event at the Shangri-La resort was part of a nationwide organized effort to set the record, with more than 50 participating locations, reported KPHO-TV in Phoenix.

The national event was called "AANR Largest Skinny-Dip Across America."

The American Association for Nude Recreation organized the effort. Officials said they hoped the events would draw 20,000 people nationally. AANR officials said 132 clubs stepped up to take part.

To be counted, all participants needed to be completely nude during the skinny-dip at 3 p.m. ET.

As with all Guinness World Records events, all record attempts were witnessed by a designated “member in standing” of the local community.

As far as participants could tell, they got the record because the category was just added to the Guinness Book this past spring.
