Transcript excerpt

Good morning, you guys. I'm out at Stump Best Beach State Park. I've had a lot of people that are angry with me lately. I wanted to talk to you guys a little bit about it before I start my shift. Basically, the park is kind of at a standstill right now. I no. It stinks. We're letting visitors come, pull their boats up, set up a few chairs along the water's edge, but people are getting really angry with me when Rank them not to let their kids run across the island, not to set up camp. The park is still deemed hazardous. We don't wanna give off the wrong impression that it's safe. Now the main reason why the park is not deemed safe is because there are tons of bricks, still tons of glass, tons of metal, sharp objects that are washing in on the beach every single day during high tier. And every single time I'm out here, I am carrying piles of these items off the beach. Sure, we can argue that they should have raked the beach by now. That doesn't negate the fact that these items are out in The Gulf and they're constantly washing up onto our island. Why would I wanna keep you off the beach unless it's no?
