Welcome to the Whitman's Pond Association

Picture
The Whitman’s Pond Association is making plans for the annual children’s fishing festival on May 20, 2012. Last year’s estimated attendance was 250 – 300 people. The success of this event is credited largely to our sponsors, who lend their names and support to all of our events. The money we raise each year goes to the maintenance of Whitman’s Pond in Weymouth.

 By participating as a sponsor, your organization will benefit from extended exposure through media campaigns and the flying of your companies banner during our events. The community will see your dedicated efforts directed toward the support of Whitman’s Pond. For a worthy donation, you'll be able to enjoy excellent exposure to this important segment of your target audience.

What we do: The Whitman's Pond Association is a 501 (C) (3) nonprofit organization entrusted with the charge to maintain the viability of Whitman's Pond by working in conjunction with the Conservation Commission and  Department of Public Works which is the manager of the pond, the Herring Run wardens, and Massachusetts Wildlife.  Whitman's Pond is the spawning ground for Atlantic alewives, commonly referred to as herring.  Our Herring Run is the second largest in the state after the town of Middleboro.During the last ten years, the Association has conducted pond cleanups, and has held a fishing festival assisted by Massachusetts Wildlife, an event where casting rods are supplied for use by the state and bait is provided by one of our sponsors.


We're counting on your support, and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Please contact our sponsorship committee at (781)-340-6976 or The Whitman’s Pond Association PMB 215 – 1271A Washington Street Weymouth, Ma. 02189 or Trish Pries onwhitmanspond@gmail.com
