<p style="text-align: left;">Beyond the rivers, our watershed has dozens of ponds to explore. For example, Bare Hill Pond in Harvard and Paradise Pond in the Leominster State Forest are lovely places to paddle, with islands and coves to investigate.

<p>One of the best ways to appreciate our rivers is to get out on the water, whether by canoe, kayak, fishing boat, even paddleboard. To help ensure a safe and enjoyable adventure, we've created the <em>Nashua River Canoe and Kayak Guide</em>. The <em>Guide </em>provides information on the Nashua River and its tributaries, the Nissitissit, Squannacook, North Nashua, and Stillwater Rivers. This full-color, pocket-sized guide contains 120 pages of information on canoe launch locations, river hazards, what to expect on each segment of our rivers, including sixteen full color maps.</p>
<p>The <em>Nashua River Canoe and Kayak Guide </em>is available for purchase at the NRWA River Resource Center at 592 Main Street (Rt. 119) in Groton, MA. It can also be purchased using our online order form. <strong><a href="http://24415.thankyou4caring.org/nashua-river-canoe-and-kayak-guide-order-form" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Order "The Nashua River Canoe and Kayak Guide" online now</a>. </strong></p>

<p>One of the best ways to appreciate our rivers is to get out on the water, whether by canoe, kayak, fishing boat, even paddleboard. To help ensure a safe and enjoyable adventure, we've created the <em>Nashua River Canoe and Kayak Guide</em>. The <em>Guide </em>provides information on the Nashua River and its tributaries, the Nissitissit, Squannacook, North Nashua, and Stillwater Rivers. This full-color, pocket-sized guide contains 120 pages of information on canoe launch locations, river hazards, what to expect on each segment of our rivers, including sixteen full color maps.</p>
<p>The <em>Nashua River Canoe and Kayak Guide </em>is available for purchase at the NRWA River Resource Center at 592 Main Street (Rt. 119) in Groton, MA. It can also be purchased using our online order form. <strong><a href="http://24415.thankyou4caring.org/nashua-river-canoe-and-kayak-guide-order-form" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Order "The Nashua River Canoe and Kayak Guide" online now</a>. </strong></p>
