River Rivals

Cody Faustinho and Chris Faustinho Jr., both of Rochester, paddle their way down the Mattapoisett River from Grandma Hartley’s Reservoir in Rochester during the 2006 running of the annual Memorial Day Boat Race. The yearly tradition drew 80 two-person teams who made the nearly 11-mile trek in small, wood-framed boats. (Photo by Kenneth J. Souza).
