Lake Waushakum Still Closed

Another water test was taken today, July 21, and hopefully, the town's public beach will re-open on Tuesday, July 22.

Framingham Parks & Recreation had to close Lake Waushakum beach last Wednesday evening on July 16 and the beach is still closed, today to water quality issues.

Framingham Parks & Recreation Department said the beach failed a water quality test. 

A sample taken at the beach, last week, was seven times the limit for E. Coli.

Another test was taken today, July 21, and hopefully, the town's public beach will re-open on Tuesday, July 22.

The town's two other beaches Learneds Pond and Saxonville beach are open and have no water quality issues.
