When: June 1, 2013; 1 pm - 3 pm

Where : 500 Broad Canal Way, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142 (Kendall Location)

Why: To protect the river! BeCause Water believes that the local community should celebrate one of the most well-known and coveted bodies of water in Greater Boston. The objective of the River Rummage is to educate participants on ways in which we can protect the river while enjoying it!

Details:
1:00 Kick-off introduction
1:30 – 2:30 Boats out!
Teams of 4 (2 double kayaks per team) will compete to collect as much MAN-MADE debris as possible in 1 hour of “rummaging” through the Charles River.
The team at the end who has the most weight of debris will win a  CASH PRIZE! There will also be prizes for 2nd and 3rd place.
BeCause Water will provide all equipment, including nets and kayaks.

Don't have a full team? Don't worry! E-mail  info@becausewater.com and you'll be matched up with fellow Rummagers!
