George's Massachusetts River Badge Drop

The Blackstone River through mill country, the East Branch of the Westfield rolling out of the Berkshire foothills, Benedict Pond tucked in twelve thousand acres of Beartown. Massachusetts paddles small and deep. State law is blunt: every visible plant or organism must come off your boat, trailer and gear before you leave a waterbody, and gear gets decontaminated before it touches water again. That's not a suggestion. Eight pieces in the Massachusetts drop: unisex tee, women's relaxed tee, youth tee, muscle tank, garment-dye crop tee, full-color two-tone cap, golf rope cap, and five-panel rope cap. Paddle On. Only You Can Keep The Rivers Clean. — George
