Cub Scouts on a planned hike might've seen more than they bargained for when they came across a nudist beach along the San Diego coastline.
The boys, ages 9 and 10, "encountered some individuals who were inappropriately dressed" at Black’s Beach near La Jolla
before being quickly rerouted, NBC San Diego reported.
Diane Lekven and her husband Erik
told CBS News 8 they were hiking behind the Cub Scout group their fourth-grade son was in and ran ahead to talk to the pack master when they realized they were at a nudist beach.
"When I got up there I said 'Hey what are you doing? We're in the middle of a nudist beach.' He said 'This is a naturalist beach, and my family and I go through here all the time it's not a big deal.' And I got really angry," Diane said, according to the station.
A statement from the Boy Scouts said: “During a planned hiking trip at Torrey Pines State Beach, a local Cub Scout Pack encountered some individuals who were inappropriately dressed. This outing, involving both parents and adult volunteer leaders, was quickly rerouted to protect the youth. Following the trip, both San Diego-Imperial Council and Pack leadership met with parents to discuss the events and determine if further action was needed. Together we concluded that proper protocol had been observed and appropriate steps were taken in this matter.”
