A welcome sight: Beautification efforts create a more appealing shelter for Pemberton travelers
/By the Hull Beautification Committee
The Hull Beautification’s “Catch the Wave” is catching on.
Thanks to the efforts of Harbormaster Kurt Bornheim, Hull has a more welcoming commuter boat shelter on Pemberton Pier. The not-so-welcoming port-a-potty has been moved to the beach side of the shelter, and a new coat of paint and shutters make for a more appealing sight for visitors and Hullonians alike.
The Hull Beautification Committee has worked with Hassan Sign of Cohasset for a new “Welcome to Hull” sign which will be added in the spring.
The HBC has created a “Planter of Pictures” featuring beautiful things in Hull that catch our eye. The planter is now on display at the Rockland Trust bank branch. Take a peek – you may be seen in a photo sweeping up in front of your business, hosing down awnings, or making your home or business a more beautiful sight with welcoming planters, signage, or decorations.
There is more good news to come from the HBC in the coming months – plenty of time for all to Catch the Wave and maybe find your picture in our planter!
