GALVESTON COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) -- According to the Galveston County Sheriff's Office, the beaches will be open for Jeep Weekend on the Bolivar Peninsula from May 14 to May 18. There will be a large law enforcement presence. With the number of attendees close to 100,000, it's all to keep everyone safe, including attendees and the locals. "We have a new sheriff. We'll see if his plan works," Tom Austin, the director of the Texas Crab Festival, said. The Texas Crab Festival is celebrating its 40th anniversary this weekend. It's going to be a big time. "It's going to be fun for the attendees. Not so fun if you live here. I'm tired of it," Austin said. The Galveston County Sheriff's Office's plan is to keep everyone safe. Rules for the weekend were released on Friday. On the beach, there is no parking or stopping to unload, no golf carts, no ATVs, no dirt bikes, no mass gatherings, no glass, no camping, and open containers are not allowed. The speed limit is 15 miles per hour, and drivers are told to follow law enforcement directions. "It's our first year making sure we are prepared," the Longhorn Liquor storeowner said. Longhorn Liquor, which is a store new to the peninsula, opened their first day of business on Friday. The store will be open next weekend. "We will be open, taking precautions.
