Enhancing Water Safety Measures for 4th of July Celebrations
TL;DR
The Oakland County Sheriff's Department has increased patrols on Oakland County lakes, particularly Cass Lake in Keego Harbor, ahead of the 4th of July holiday. Last year, a small group of boaters engaged in obnoxious and disruptive behavior, prompting residents to demand action. The sheriff's department is now providing a dedicated marine patrol to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for families. The focus is on education and promoting respectful behavior, but drunk boating will result in tickets.
