Easter at City of Rocks State Park

Our manager, Gabe, informed us days ahead of time, so we expected crowds at the park to be large.  He said that we would all need to work whether it was our normal workday or not.  He also said that he would have pizza for us to eat on the run(no lunch breaks).
The regional supervisor came to add one more person at the entrance station, making 4 people getting the visitors admitted.  I was the only person in the visitor center, and it was manageable(just).

On Friday evening, one camper family was having such a good time that they were keeping the entire camp awake, and Gabe had to come in and restore order.  Saturday night it was the same story again.  They had way too many people in their site, too many cars, too much loud music, too much drinking, and throwing glass beer bottles to break them, too much smoking!  Did they never learn manners?

Sunday evening, I saw Gabe and Gloria picking up trash bags throughout the park, and at least two pickup truck beds were completely stuffed.  Much trash is still to be picked up, and it will be a job!

  1. It sounds like those folks never did learn about manners or concern for others. Too bad for everyone who had to put up with their shenanigans. Hopefully they've moved on -

  2. Aren't you glad Easter is over?!? I'm still seeing them driving by with truck beds full of trash bags. Katie and I walked around a bit this morning, and the sites looked good. :)

  3. Oh the loud, noisy campers. They are so much fun. Last year here at the park we had a group that was like that. Drinking way too much, and vomiting on the bathroom walls, and the amount of trash they left at their site was unbelievable. They really need to start banning those people from ever returning or fining them. They said last year they might this year. I sure hope they do. Here is is Memorial Day that is horrible.

  4. I'll bet you're happy the holiday is over! Now it's time for you to rest and recuperate.

  5. Think those people should have been told to move when they played up again the second night. Disrespectful to the others.

    Aren't there trash cans around? Again disrespectful to just drop litter around.
