It Clearly says it on there wed site the beach will open June 24

I am fairly local and have utilized this beach for decades. I took my two grandkids to the beach on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and it was closed?!? No sign, no warning, no staff to ask why or for how long; just a big padlock and chain. We have always enjoyed just walking/playing on the beach or lying in the sun if there wasn't a lifeguard. It is over an hour drive to pick up my grandkids and get there, VERY difficult to find parking, then a long hot walk carrying all the beach stuff.... I am very disappointed that "our" beautiful beach has come to this. Why would the beach be closed on the Saturday of the kick-off to summer weekend?....
