Whitewater rafting on the Concord River

Filed under watersport by andrew wolfe at 10:47 am

I’m still waiting to see our photos, which will run with a story on Sunday, but meanwhile, Lowell Parks & Conservation Trust Exec. Director Jane Calvin sent some that she took of our raft. That’s Zoar Outdoor’s Amber Tulloch steering the boat in back, myself on the starboard bow, a Lowell Sun reporter portside, and Grant Morris midships starboard, and Shahid Jalil to his left. No one swam on this trip, though the Sun apparently lost the use of a non-waterproof camera:

The rafting trips help raise money for Lowell P&C, to support the Concord River Greenway project and other good works, and Lowell P&C run the locks where the rafts take out at the end, beside the Doubletree hotel downtown.
