Post pursuant to RSA 270-D:4

Here's the administrative rules required to hold the event you are talking about on the Lake. If you look closely at the expiration dates it appears that as posted most of these rules have expired. However, the State's website is known to not have timely updates, and a disclaimer within confirms that. Best bet is to call Director Barrett direct at MP Headquarters in Gilford to get the official scoop......
