Beach stickers are getting insane...ESP when you get one and they close the beach for the ******* plovers.
Out here I have been trying to talk up the idea of an "island permit" good for both trustees ($160) and the town beach (Norton point) ($50)
Further, I hear a lot of derby fishermen would like to get a permit for the period during the derby...but don't want to spend the 210 for a week of fishing...I sort of agree and think a derby beach pass (island wide) would be a good thing. The trustees don't want to hear about it and most of the people on chappy don't want *any* vehicles there anyway so getting a discount rate and more vehicles on the beach is just what they don't want. It is going to be an uphill fight.
My wish is that the plovers become extinct and we cannot move on from there.
