Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Mark your calendars and start training now for the North and South River Watershed’s Annual Great River Race! Always a highlight of summer, this year’s event will surely not be an exception. For you newbies, the North River (and its tributaries and off-shoots) is our border with Norwell, Pembroke and Hanson and is truly a Hanover treasure. If you haven’t had a chance to explore it, now is the time! All skill levels, from novice to racer, are invited to participate in the race that is approximately 6 miles long. Non-motorized vessels including canoes, kayaks, rowboats, and rafts participate in the race piloted by people of all ages. The race begins at the Union Street bridge (Norwell side) and ends at the Washington Street bridge with take out at the Hanover Canoe launch on Saturday,
August 22nd.
