CULTURAL LANDSCAPE & RECREATION
LFSWS funded a series of flat-water paddles for the summer of 2024 to familiarize town representatives, both LFSWS members and members of the Farmington River Coordinating Committee (FRCC, the upper river Wild and Scenic group) with most of the Farmington River. The 2-hour paddling trips included river segments from Riverton to the Connecticut River below the Farmington’s confluence with it. The purpose of the trips was to broaden the participants’ knowledge about the whole river. Boat rentals and shuttle service were provided by Mainstream Canoe in New Hartford and Metacomet Tours in Windsor. Approximately 10 representatives attended each of these trips, with not all attending every trip.
