Committees: Trustees of the Bathing Beach 2010 Annual Report Our symbiotic relationship continues with the Hingham Farmers' Market. The Market had a successful season in 2010 and our contract with the Hingham Farmers' Market paid for the much needed striping of the parking lot and more. In September, there was a goose hunting incident while a church picnic was in progress. Fortunately the Hingham Police Department has explained that, according to a town ordinance, hunting is not allowed at the Bathing Beach. Also in the fall, a movie company used the Bathing Beach parking lot as a staging area for their film. Their financial contribution has benefited the Bathing Beach and the Town. The Bathing Beach continues to be an area of mixed use for swimming, picnics, parties, family reunions, weddings, picture taking, a crafts fair and other activities. Once again the winter storms have caused serious erosion. Repairs must be done to the beach in the late spring. We are grateful to the Public Works Department for already shoring up the corner of the parking lot which had been undermined by the first major storm of the season. We thank the following people: Jeff Pizzi, who again volunteered his time to help with plumbing problems at the bath house; Robert Egan for building a new ladder for the raft; David Hardy for helping to untangle the string of swimming floats after the first winter storm; and Harbormaster Ken Corson for placing the raft in the spring and pulling it out in the fall.
