Merrimack River Recreation Survey

Do you use the Merrimack River for recreational activities like boating, fishing, jet-skiing, or simply walking alongside it? The Merrimack River Watershed Council (MRWC) wants to hear from you!

The MRWC is partnering with the Boston University school of public health is conducting a recreation survey aimed at those who live throughout the Merrimack River Watershed in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

As a community of anglers, swimmers, boaters, paddlers, and persons residing in the watershed, Boston University is interested in how local residents use the Merrimack River, in order to gauge the potential public health risks involved in your recreational activity of choice. Even if you do not participate in any direct on-water activity, your input is still valued. Those who complete the survey are entered in a raffle to win a $25 Market Basket gift card or a free guided paddling trip on the Merrimack River.

The results of the survey will be used to help further the efforts to pass legislation intended to protect and improve the quality of the Merrimack River, and increase potential avenues for recreation and enjoyment by all. Visit here to take the short survey.

And if you’re interested in learning more about the MRWC and their ongoing efforts, don’t miss our exclusive interview with MRWC Executive Director Matthew Thorne, which will be featured in the upcoming November-December issue of MVM.
