No beach fees, no lifeguards, no crowds in peak season, no boardwalk, no food concessions, and no schlock shops.  There are no condominiums anywhere in sight.

But there are clean and airy bathrooms hidden among the trees.

There is a parking lot which charges $5.00 per hour.

   Connecting your observations to the OG parking dilemma. It’s exactly the reason CMA will never be motivated to eliminate free parking.

   “There is a parking lot which charges $5.00 per hour.” => “no crowds in peak season”

   translation….

   Paid/permit parking = less beach passes = less money = CMA fighting parking changes tooth and nail

   Promoting religion makes…. oops, I mean… costs money.

   Therefore, free parking good. No free parking bad.

   Pres. Badger. (CMA) is worried that Neptuners might feel excluded in the Grove and that we might be thought of as “elitist” if we don’t give them privileged parking, but maybe he should consider letting them onto our beaches for free.
