Suzanne Newell holds her paddle up in triumph after successfully running the rapids at Chrissy’s Falls during the Barrington River Run on May 12.
There was a sunny sky and fast water for the annual Barrington River Run on May 12.
More than 30 canoes and kay- aks and one stand- up paddle board traversed the horseshoe shaped route from Clement’s Pond, through the Pond Branch to Barrington Lake, and then down the Barrington River, where the five sets of rapids made for some wet and wild fun.
