A little fun in the sun ☀️ yesterday!

Thank you Chesterfield Police Department for being such an incredible help today making sure Kris and I make it safely through your town. ❤️

Officers out this morning making sure that Recycled Percussion makes it up Stoddard Hill safely. Good luck on your journey!

These hills are brutal for Justin.

I’ve been with him and Kris for every step so far and this journey has begun with massive relentless hills, heat, and 200 pounds at your hands during any given moment. I hear him repeatedly yelling the distance “my fu***ng calves” over and over, so that will definitely be a theme.

But overall, they are both in good spirits, Kris is his typical hilarious sarcastic self telling Justin to suck it up, and more importantly, I can already tell this will be a memory Kris will never forget.

They are about 4 miles into a 160 mile journey and could certainly use some positive energy along the way. If you are anywhere between Brattleboro VT and Keene NH, feel free to park somewhere safe like a gas station along the route and when we stop to get nutrition, a hug and positive message is always welcome.

Keep pushing 👊🏼

🚨 Reminder- North Shore Beach🚨

As we head into the summer season, the Chesterfield Police Department would like to remind everyone that a valid Town decal must be properly displayed when parking at and using North Shore Town Beach.

To help avoid confusion and potential enforcement action:

✅ Town decals must be displayed on the front windshield, passenger-side lower corner of the vehicle.

❌ Displaying a vehicle registration resident will not be considered sufficient.

Vehicles without properly displayed decals may be subject to enforcement, including fines or towing in accordance with posted regulations.

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in helping ensure the beach remains available for authorized town residents and their guests. Thank you for helping us keep the area orderly and enjoyable for all.
