Saturday Charles River Swim!!! 7:30 - 9:15am

Between Mass Ave and Longfellow Bridges - no boats allowed while swimmers in the water!!! not rowers, not powerboaters - previous emails about this event have been sent out. Bouys will be set up at 6:30 am, safety personel on the water at 7:30 - no one will be allowed through area between 7:30 and 9:15. Please plan accordingly.

Also Saturday morning New England Paralyzed Veterans Bass fishing event - probably early morning to mid day. About 30 boats out of Newton Yacht Club mostly lurking under bridges and stopped along the shore, but also traveling the length of the river. ALL OVER THE RIVER!! Rowers - heads up and be alert for boats and fishing lines.

Wednesday Evening 5:30 -7:30pm Watertown Yacht Club is hosting about 100 students from Perkins School for a river ride from the Yacht Club to the Mass Ave Bridge. Given the wieght in the boats there will be significantly more wake than usual even at very low speeds. Heads up everyone!!
