We went down to the boat landing this weekend to launch our kayaks. It was not a good experience. The landing area had beer bottles and cans all around in the grass. There was a drunk guy there that was a jerk to several people. I understand it was labor day weekend and people wanted to relax, but being drunk that early in the day and near a public boat landing was stupid.
We kayak down river and passed several more landings that had groups of drunk people. Doesn't fish and game patrol the river? I really don't care if these idiots drown themselves, but I am concerned that they are in boats at some point endangering the rest of us.
Who is responsible for keepingg the main landing area clean? Is it the town or the county?

It's part of the town, not the county.
Actually, the boat landing and the surrounding parking areas are state property, supposedly patroled by the VDGF and the town police also. But as you see they do quite poorly in their duties. Report it to the proper authorities rather than attempting to raise hackles and appear so much better than the populace of this small town , who generally aren't on the river .

WTF are you talking about that I'm trying to appear "better than" the populace of this small town. Being concerned about drunks and litter is universal. If the "populace" of this small town is offended because someone doesn't want their step kids exposed to such trash then they can get used to being offended, because I'm not going to tolerate it.
