SHARON — Weighing issues of safety and the enforcement of rules, the selectmen in Sharon discussed strategies for a regulated opening of the town beach and summer day care program, at their regular meeting on Tuesday, May 26.

Bread Alone founder Dan Leader will talk about his new book, “Living Bread.”
