Donovan and Pico Beaches re-opened to public

Winthrop Commissioner of Inspectional Services Albert Legee said Donovan Beach and Pico Beach were reopened to the public last Friday.

The beaches had been closed due to high bacteria content in the waters. But after extensive testing and receiving good results from the laboratory, Legee opened the beach to residents.

Testing is done at all Winthrop beaches throughout the summer, according to Legee.
