Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson is heartbroken to learn and share the news of the passing of one of our Girl Scout Sisters. Delana Weyandt, a member of Troop 356 in Sullivan County, was loved by many and she will be greatly missed. We share our sincere condolences and well wishes for her family, friends, troop members, and all who had the honor of knowing her in life. If you wish to support Delana's family during this difficult time, there is a GoFundme fundraising campaign and a Meal Train organized by loved ones. https://bit.ly/4dkT3Tx

"Aw, look how they hold hands when they go to the other side of the net?" my teenage daughter said. "I'm loving the women supporting women vibe of this Olympics!"

And as I watched Sara Hughes and Kelly Cheng, the United States' best beach volleyball pair, interlock their fingers as they walked to their bench, I totally got what my daughter was saying because beautiful moments like these are happening like rapid fire right now.

It's Allyson Felix launching a first-of-its-kind nursery for athlete mothers at the Olympics, and marathon runner Aliphine Tuliamuk and judoka Clarisse AgbΓ©gnΓ©nou advocating for breastfeeding space.

It's watching U.S. women's soccer coach Emma Hayes walking with her arm around Japan's Maika after a hard-fought loss.

It's Suni Lee and Simone Biles cheering on Brazil's Rebeca Andrade during the all-around, knowing what the three of them have overcome in the last few years.

It's rugby player Ilona Maher inspiring young girls to love their bodies no matter what the size.

It’s Katie Ledecky sharing the podium with her teammate Paige Madden.

It's South Korea's shooting Silver medalist and maybe the coolest person at the Olympics Ye-ji Kim carrying around a stuffed elephant that her daughter gave her.

It's Sha'Carri Richardson walking over to Julien Alfred after losing the 100m race and giving her a hug, then gleefully celebrating her Silver medal along with her teammate who won Bronze..

Millions of women seeing women supporting women. It is so powerful. It spreads like wildfire.

It's Adele stopping a concert to watch the women's 100m race last night.

It's Shannon Miller jumping for joy when Simone Biles broke her medal record.

It's Michele Kang contributing to lesser-known sports and women's teams, and the first stadium built for women’s sports in KC. (And shout out to Flavor Flav for helping out the women's water polo team because he's a "girl dad.")

When we see women supporting women instead of cutting them down, it's when the game changes, it's when we can meet our potential, and it's when we become unstoppable forces in this world.

Sports has always had a direct effect on society on multiple levels, from supporting vulnerable and marginal groups and rallying a nation in transition to building confidence and creating opportunities for youth.

We are living change right now, and dang, girls! You are killing it!

Even if you are not a sports fan, there is something electric about what's happening right now. Use it as a spark to engage with your daughters and with your sons.

And when you have an opportunity to lift a girl up, take it. There is enough success for all of us.

So, when I saw those two teammates walking hand in hand back onto that sandy court, I felt the vibe that my daughter was talking about.

And I want to see more of it, too.

Love hard. It's the only thing that matters.

β€œOf all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt.” – John Muir

National parks offer countless opportunities to explore the great outdoors. There's something for everyone.
https://www.nps.gov/learnandexplore/outdoor-adventure.htm

The Hyde Park Trail system currently includes about 34 miles of trails, including trails within 3 National Park units, a State Park complex, 3 Town Parks, and a land trust nature preserve, connected in large part by trail easements across private lands, as well as on-road linkages. All trails in the Hyde Park Trail system were designated National Recreation Trails by the U. S. Department of the Interior in 2006, and their formal designation as Hudson River Valley Greenway Trails was underway in 2018.

Trail visitation data collected on five trails administered by the National Park Service have shown that these NPS trails receive nearly 40,000 visits per year. We estimate that total visitation to all Hyde Park Trails, including the Town Parks, Winnakee Nature Preserve and the popular Mill-Norrie State Park, is in the neighborhood of 80,000 to 100,000 per year.

For more information and maps for the Hyde Park Trail visit: https://www.hydeparkny.us/246/Trails-Overview
