Distinctions and Disgraces

On this page we will periodically let you know about events and activities that happen along the Souhegan River. Some deserve distinction, while others set a bad example. If you learn about something happening along the river deserving of recognition, please sent me email at harts@ultranet.com

(9/98) Congratulations and thanks to all of the volunteer water quality monitors for the hours of effort they put in collecting samples every other Tuesday morning from June to September of 1998.

(7/98) Thanks to the folks in New Ipswich for organizing the removal of an abandoned building blocking the view of Highbridge, the largest dry stone bridge in the state at the intersection of Rtes 123 & 124.

(8/97) Congratulations and thanks to whoever cleaned up the Horseshoe area of the Souhegan recently. We know there are lots of folks out there who do local river cleanups on a regular basis. We thank these river stewards and look forward to working with them to protect and preserve the Souhegan River.

(8/97) Just the opposite was true recently for the Amherst Canoeport on Boston Post Road. The area was left a mess in the parking area, the river, and on the downstream side of the bridge.
