OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) – As summer and boating season approaches, the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office is issuing a reminder to people who like to party in the water.
In a statement, Sheriff John Matz reminds people that the county has many popular sand bars located close to residential shorelines. He’s now asking people to provide ‘ample space’ along shorelines during recreational activities.
Last summer, there were several incidents where property owners along the water could not access their privately-owned piers as a result of boats being anchored near shore. Additionally, there were reports of trespassing, littering, vulgar language, lewd behavior, and boisterous activities. There was even an incident where a recreational boater ordered a pizza and instructed the delivery driver to use the private property of a landowner.
