North and South River Watershed Association, and the Towns of Hanson and
Pembroke, will celebrate the improvements made in the Indian Head River
Trail (IHRT) on Saturday, May 14 at Luddam’s Ford Park and Chapman’s

along the river a beautiful destination!
A variety of activities for all ages and interests will take place
throughout the day. The Open Space Committee hopes you will join them for
a celebration of this wonderful resource found right in our town!
