Default Re: Creating your own swimming areas...

Spruce Run was chaos today.
After the park was filled to capacity and the gate was closed, the picnickers started filling up all the parking lots on Van Syckle Road. They set up their barbeques and started wading in the water. The parking lot between the fishing pier and the park entrance even had some kind of DJ set-up blasting Spanish music. It could be heard across the lake.

The park employees were trying to keep people from swimming outside the swimming area, but they were just overwhelmed by the massive crowds popping up everywhere. I saw some guy get out of a white parks department car and walk along the shoreline by the boat ramp telling people to get out of he water.

It seems to be getting worse every year.
