WHITMAN — After consulting yesterday with the Whitman Board of Health, the Hanson Board of Heath, Whitman Fire Chief Timothy Grenno and Hanson Deputy Fire Chief Rob O’Brien, it has been recommended that there be no change to current outdoor evening activities in either town, including school activities and sports for the Whitman-Hanson Regional School District, Superintendent Jeffrey Szymaniak announces.
