The Official Trash Lake Code of Conduct – 10 Lake Life Rules to Break in Style
Every lake has its own vibe. Some are full of shiny boats, matching outfits, and neighbors who call the DNR if your music’s too loud.
Then there’s our kind of lake.
Welcome to Trash Lake — where we don’t just bend the rules; we cannonball right through them with a beer in hand.
To keep the chaos somewhat organized, we came up with a few guidelines (not rules — that’s a dirty word around here).
1. No Judging… Unless It’s a Cannonball Contest
Everyone’s equal once the beers crack open — whether you’re driving a jet ski, a bass boat, or a floaty shaped like a flamingo.
2. BYOB — Bring Your Own Boat, Beer, or Bad Decisions
You don’t have to own a boat to belong here, but you better bring something to the table — even if it’s just vibes and a bag of ice.
3. SPF 30 Is Optional, Regret Is Not
Real ones know the Trash Lake tan comes in two shades: crispy and crispy-er.
4. If You Drop It in the Lake, It’s Gone Forever
Phones, flip-flops, dignity — once it hits the water, it’s part of the ecosystem now.
5. What Happens at the Sandbar, Stays at the Sandbar (Unless It’s Funny)
If it’s embarrassing and hilarious, it’s public domain. Expect to see it in the group chat and maybe even our next post.
6. Respect the Water… But Not Too Much
We love the lake, but we also like doing dumb stuff in it. Just don’t die — that’s the only real rule.
7. No Drama on the Dock
The only fighting allowed is over who gets aux. (Spoiler: it’s whoever has the loudest playlist.)
8. Always Tip Your Captain — Even If That’s You
Fuel, snacks, and Bluetooth speakers don’t pay for themselves.
9. The Party Ends When the Sun Comes Up, Not When It Goes Down
Trash Lake doesn’t do “early nights.” When the bonfire hits, we thrive.
10. You Break It, You Buy the Next Round
Accidents happen. Just don’t pretend it didn’t.
💚 Honor the Code — or Break It Beautifully
At the end of the day, the Trash Lake Code isn’t about rules — it’s about freedom, fun, and not taking yourself too seriously.
So go ahead, bend every “rule” on this list… just make sure you’re wearing a Trash Lake tee while you do it.
