The city should plan ahead and have people ready to clean the beach after the party ends. In South Padre, they close the party beach at 5pm. Cops actually line up and start pushing people out if they don't leave soon after. They can then clean the beach up and have it ready for the next day. Sounds like GS needs to get things in order. The money added to the towns economy from all the tourism will more than cover the cost of cleaning the beach. It just needs to be organized.

Gulf Shores doesnt want spring break like this and they are okay with the lesser revenue

In that case start writing tickets. It may take a year, but if GS has a reputation for high dollar tickets for MIP and littering and PI then people will choose to go to spring break in another place. An MIP in South Padre is $90. You get a ticket and immediately go start drinking again. They don't care. They know you know they don't care. If GS starts to care more, college kids will realize it isn't worth the tickets.

When was your first time to come to GS?

I came with my folks in mid late 50s. Mostly fishing shacks and Twix and Tween had a motel. Also The Light House. They had a motel and also small beach cabins.
Those were the days.
