I can't speak for Moultonborough, but we have a Lake Host program on Merrymeeting too. If you want to cover the majority of the time that boats are going in and out, and especially catch the early morning put-ins, there are far more hours to cover than the budgets will allow.

So, as Lakegeezer stated, the coverage is done using a combination of paid hosts (usually students) and volunteers.
