Who were the first people to paddle the Westfield? Woronoco was once a village of over 1000 Native people who fished, hunted, and planted along the river’s banks for thousands of years. Wild & Scenic Westfield River Committee is thrilled to sponsor a talk by Dr. Bruchac, Professor Emerita, Anthropology from the University of Pennsylvania here in Huntington MA. Dr Bruchac will shed light on the life of Rhoda Rhoades (1751-1841) the renowned Mohican “Indian Doctress” from Indian Hollow who traveled widely in the region practicing her art of healing. This event was organized by the Wild Water Races celebrating the 70th years and sponsored by the Wild & Scenic Westfield River Committee.
