American mutual! Ik this is super random but it’s haunting me… does the USA have like free public barbecues in parks and at beaches that’s anybody can use? Bc I heard that’s just an Australian thing which is crazy?
so you have come to me for ✨American✨ lore I see 😌 , finally, something i have knowledge on…
yea we do free public grilling spots and park awnings too cook under and beaches for anyone to use. There’s so many scattered in any local area, where you can take you family on the weekend (usually after 6pm it’s gauranteed to be free) and just hang out for a couple of hours.
This is one of my family’s favorite past times in the summer, being such a big family there’s hardly anywhere to go for fun without it being a huge drain.
So we head out to this state park after 6pm, find a nice grilling spot, my dad brings dinner and the charcoal and follows whatever rules they have and my siblings bring their bikes to whiz around the parking lot, aaaand we have a good time :)
Public beaches are also a huge thing here, where festivals are held, or just normal beach going activities.
No fee or sign in or anything, you just walk in and take it easy on the sand with your umbrella and beach towel. There’s different rules for the water though, depending on the time of day, you might not be allowed in by the lifeguard but that’s a separate thing.
