Wow, save a whopping $5K on trash removal. I think it would be worth spending. The result is going to be a new landfill called C-Creek.

If your at the beach... with your kids shouldn't you be watching them instead of the women? Plus you need to learn how to spell. Tattoo.
Businesses are trying to save money not matter what the out come will be. Seems they like to shoot themselves in the foot and then wonder how things get worse. When the parks start looking like landfills maybe they will realize this was not the right thing to do.

C-CREEK IS A WONDERFUL STATE THAT IS GOING TO GO DOWNHILL QUICKLY. I RUN AT THE PARK ON A REGULAR BASIS AND IT IS A GREAT NATURAL AREA. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE POWERS THAT BE ARE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE LOOK OF THIS WONDERFUL AREA. THEY MAY BE SAVING ON TRASH BAGS BUT THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY SOMEONE TO CLEAN UP THE AREA. OH, AND BY THE WAY I AN NOT A TOOTHLESS HILLJACK. NAME CALLING IS FOR THE IGNORANT. NEED I SAY MORE!

I understand budget problems but come on! Garbage is already a problem. Look along Ohio roadways!

Between the goose poop and the cigarette butts, C-Crk has always been a disgusting mess. I imagine the new policy can only make things worse. I took my children to "the beach" there once, and once was enough. Muddy water and ignorant locals screaming into their cell phones all day long. The place definitely rivals the Montgomery County Fair for the area's single largest collection of ugly, tatooed women!

Oh great. What idiot thought up this one! Face it, ODNR, people are PIGS! Go to C-Crk Beach some weekend and see all the toothless mulleted tattooed hilljacks. They're gonna bring trash bags?! With any luck, they'll throw their crap in their cars, but don't count on it. All to save what? $53k out a multi-multi-million $ budget. Idiots.
