Beach Time Behavior

We are all heading out to beaches and lakes to celebrate this 4th of July. We have just a few tips for being a considerate beach goer or lake lounger. 

1) Beach Food

Make your food bite size so nothing gets wasted. Sand proof you food - use your ziplocs religiously. Smaller than containers and easily thrown away. Some may use coolers as the main place to congregate but the real pros will bring out the folding tables to bring it all up a notch. I love these tables from Sam'sClub. http://m.samsclub.com/ip/4-comm-adj-comm-grade-adj/prod8340198?pid=_CSE_Google_PLA_Folding_Tables&source=ifpla&CAWELAID=730010300000300481&adid=22222222628000000571&veh=sem. They come in different sizes and are very easy to tote (and useful for house parties with a quick tablecloth). 

2) Dunes & Don'ts

Keep glassware off the beach 

No boom boxes or super loud talking

Throw away your trash

Keep your dog on a leash

Secure your umbrellas

Refill any holes you dug

Don't feed the gulls

Use spf - a lot

Stay off the dunes

3) Beach Butts

Smoke if you must but keep it far from others and make sure smoke is not heading downstream to fellow sunbathers 

Now go enjoy the long weekend!
