Question

Will there be a bar?

Answer

Yes! If you're 21+ please let me know personally if you prefer beer, wine, or liquor. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed in the State Park unless provided by the vendor on site. It is important that I get a head count because I have to purchase per person, per hour.
