Community Preps for Official Beach Opening of July 1

New as you drive by Lake Beseck Beach this summer, a beach shack.  It's a fun snack bar, guard shack and place to purchase beach passes on the weekends.  

The concession booth was previously owned by the Democratic Town Committee and used as a potato booth at the Durham Fair. Many thanks for their generous donation of the booth to the Town of Middlefield Parks and Recreation.

20 volunteers came out to help with the cleaning, painting and decorating of the new Middlefield Park & Rec beach shack, including State Representative Buddy Altobello. Volunteers also helped to place swim markers out in preparation for the official beach opening of July 1st.  

Our pass checkers will now be able to stay cool while offering up beach passes, cold beverages and snacks.  Stop by and say hello to Danny and Hunter, our new weekend guards for this summer.

Many thanks to all who came out to help on June 27th and 28th, donated beach themed items for the snack bar and stopped by to say hello.  It's looking "beachy" out there!

Beach passes can be purchased at the Town Hall during the weekdays and at the beach shack on the weekends.
