I think the skinny dip was put on as part of the BW Summer Festival, which helped host the visitors of R&V in the campgrounds (not as part of R&V directly).
Unfortunately last year, a riot broke out at this in the campground, some campers decided to set tents on fire and started fighting and throwing things at each other resulting in 68 arrests and 83 injuries. It inevitably got cancelled so is not happening this year.
Rhythm and Vines are looking after the campgrounds but there is no mention of an organized skinny dip like for the BW Summer Festival in previous years. Does seem to be the way more often than not, that things like this that just seem to too good to be true will always end by people being idiots.
