WALK ON
TOW will call the police too. it's the church's wishes that no drugs, alcohol or tobacco be used in or on the property. sorry you feel a need to break rules and get a hostel closed down. the police already do random walk-throughs on their own and will soon have narcotics dogs with them. time to crack down on the jerk hikers
Humor section?
When staying at ANY hostel - not just The Place - hikers need to obey the rules of the house. Don't agree with the rules then stay somewhere else.
There are plenty of other places to stop along the trail where such activity is welcome. Some operators will even run you to town or pick up your booze for you. Just don't try run off with out paying them back.
The trouble I have with campfires are the folks that carry a bottle in one hand and a Bible in the other.
You never know which one is talking.
the fact that this woodsy character feels disrespecting the Methodist Church is an OK thing shows what kinda jerk he really is. he's part of the growing problem
If the rules are posted and you disagree with them the stay somewhere else. If you choose to stay and break the rules then you chose to pay the piper. I've seen a picture of the place with no drinking signs. Its extremely disrespectful to ignore the rules on someone elses private property. It's even dumber to go on the internet and trash the Place because you chose to ignore their rules.
I'm a reformed"long haired freaky people"doper from (76'-03')don't care what you do,but know if you break the law,and or the rules,you'll have no one to blame but yourself.Ya know it sounds like there fead-up,so why not just find another "place",go"take a walk in the woods",better stay away from those school areas too,that brings addtional fines and or time.Trivia Question;Who said"Only Dopes use Dope"?was itA) Cheech and ChongB),Flip Wilson,or C)LW.

You get arrested if the cops determine you have broken the law.
Barring exceptional circumstances, random police walk-throughs with drug sniffing dogs have no place at the Place. That's just plain wrong. Its Unchristian.
If its come to that, the hostel should be closed.
why is this a debate
