This is for everyone’s protection. Should a Member have a number of guests arriving at the beach, that Member may post his or her name at the bulletin board near the gate and leave the gate open for the duration of the event. However, that Member should maintain vigilance and ensure those people entering through the gate are Members or their escorted guests. Automobile access is discouraged between December and March.
