they have daily programs of an educational nature in july and august, there is a mile of water front designated as the "bathing"(pretty sure they mean swimming) area that is staffed with a lifegaurd mid-june through early september, and they also have a bunch of other points of interest around the park(mostly cool sounding educational stuff)
the site also shows the parking areas as being fairly small, i seem to remember some of them being easily large enough for us though. i will check into this further.
i don't see a policy listed on the park home page, but i am pretty sure all state parks do not allow alchohol.

Per person or per car? Any time I went it was always per car.
And we don't need alcohol to have a good time. If you want alcohol, go out to a bar afterwards.
And if it's $55 to picnic no matter what the size of the group, why don't we have everyone chip in $2 if they plan to go? I have a feeling a beach meet would bring a LOT of people, you could probably get away with $1 each. I would be more than willing to chip in a couple bucks to pay $55...at least it's not the amount that some restaurants want for a deposit.
