Over250 bylaw infractionswere dished out to beach-goers atGrand Bendbeach this past weekend raising possibilities of its possible closure for the summer.

With the sunny weather and heat combined, crowds of 20 and 30-year-olds packed onto the Lambton County beach ignoring social distancing rules. The crowds came after the beach reopened last week.

Day-trippers and other residents flocked there in hordes leading to Lambton County mayor Bill Weber to release a video reminding beach-goers about what the rules are on social media.

“COVID is not gone yet,” he emphasizes in the video.

In an interviewwith Global News, Weber said if crowds continue to not follow the rules, they might have to shut down the beach for the rest of the summer.

He continues to promote the beaches’ healthy and safety protocols and has now increased the number of bylaw officers frequenting the beaches.
