Lake Waushakum Beach Re-Opens For Swimming

 

 

FRAMINGHAM – The Massachusetts Department of Public Health has eliminated a health advisory at Lake Waushakum beach.

The beach is safe for swimming and other water activities as of Thursday night, May 23.

Lifeguards will not be at the City beach this Memorial Day weekend.

The City typically does not man the City’s three beaches – Waushakum Learned’s Pond, and Saxonville Beach – until mid-June.

The City is still seeking lifeguards for its beaches this summer.

Interested applicants should apply via the City’s employment portal at www.framinghamma.gov.

The City has a BeachAlert system, which aims to create a stronger and more connected community by empowering residents with crucial beach-related information.

By providing accurate and timely notifications, BeachAlert ensures that residents can make informed decisions and stay well-prepared for their beach outings.

To sign up, visit the City's "Notify Me" page at: https://www.framinghamma.gov/list.aspx, provide an email address or smartphone number where you'd like to receive the alerts then select which types of alerts you'd like to receive.
