District Overview

Welcome to the Headwaters District Web page, we are home to over 50 units and growing!

Formerly known as the “Blue District”, Headwaters includes 12 towns of the MetroWest area, spreading down route 495 to the Rhode Island border. We earned our name through the cunning observation that our District’s footprint contains the Assabet, Concord, and Sudbury Rivers. We are also the home of the starting line of the Boston Marathon and the Mayflower Council Marlborough Service Center.
