Will someone give us a report on the new ordinance and it's effect?

Our friends are in a Rivard rental in Grayton. There is a notice about "Remove It or Lose It" posted on the fridge, that is very clear about remvoing your things from the beach every night.

Ordinances and bylaws aside, wouldn't any self-respecting person simply take notice of the natural beauty of the beach and, out of respect for Mother Nature, not trash it up with molded plastic, accordian tent frames, and other general junk? Campers honor the "leave it as you found it" credo. Beach-goers, locals or tourists, can do the same.

the self-respecting have been replaced by the lazy, empowered clueless...

This whole crap-on-the-beach situation is just another manifestation of the eroding respect our society has experienced over the past couple of decades.

"R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me!" Sing it, Aretha!

Unfortunately many people just don't seem to comprehend the idea of picking up after themselves - whether camping, driving, or at the beach.

Hopefully the new enforcement of the "no items on the beach overnight" will improve the trash level.
 
It could be worse...I just got back from the beach and watched a kid scale the side of an eroded dune...he was grabbing stalks of sea oats to pull himself further up the embankment! I took care of the situation;he will not be doing it again:ninja:

Did the kid have parents? My rear would have been red as a spring breaker if I did something like that!
