Negative. The park does not allow alcohol. Sorry.

Joe, you can drink it if you put it in a cup or glass and DO NOT overly indulge :-D the rules are lax but can and will be enforced if someone gets unruly or belligerent :smt004 I for one do drink a few while there, but keep the #s down :smt004 the main thing that is not tolerated is any profanity of any kind :evil: I know that Tom and some other would prefer that we didn't drink, but so long as folks act like they got some sense, I don't see a problem :beer: :beer:

Looks like we may get a drop or two of rain, but we'll be completely covered so don't let a little rain stop you from coming down and enjoying the fun.

OK, call me a prude but in the past few years, the use of the City Park at Sopchoppy and the Social it's self has been a real plus for all of us and an execellent PR vehicle for both the NFGFC and the Big Bend Fishing . Net forum. I'd hate to see a debate over or the use of a few cans of beer do anything to tear that down. I would hope that a good time can be had with out puting our future welcome or our image in jeopardy. The judgement of "good sense" will be in the eye of the beholder and may not be the same as the eye of the partaker. I'm not against someone having a beer. But, it would be sad if something happened to restrict us from continuing to enjoy the facilities in the future or if guests left with a bad impression. ($.02)

Plausible Deniability. If I don't see it, then I don't have to answer for it.

Hey, Tom....In looking over the list of items folks are bringing, I see only two parties who are bringing fish. Do you believe that is enough?

Rules will be respected. I am from out of state and unsure of park rules in Florida. Only time I have used a park in this state is to Launch. Looking forward to the social. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Tom, the Mrs. and I will be bringing two guests. Mother-in-law will be tagging along with us and will be keeping an eagle-eye on our little one, Grace.

If you saw how much fish I was bringing, you wouldn't ask that.
