Adaptive Sports Partners

Posted on May 16, 2024May 16, 2024 By Hardwick Trails
Adaptive Sports, Experiences

For the second consecutive year, Adaptive Sports Partners and the Hardwick Recreation Committee are joining forces to ensure that the trails of Hardwick remain open and accessible to all. Striving to eliminate barriers and promote inclusivity, the partnership is offering a series of free programming sessions tailored for athletes with disabilities. Every Monday throughout the summer, individuals of all abilities are invited to participate in biking, mountain biking, and hiking activities, fostering not only physical well-being but also a sense of community and belonging. The schedule is as follows: biking on the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m., mountain biking on Hazen Trails from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., and hiking from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.

Come one, come all, is the resounding call as Adaptive Sports Partners extends a warm invitation to individuals with physical, developmental, emotional, and behavioral disabilities. With sessions scheduled every Monday, participants can embark on exhilarating biking adventures along the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail and the Hazen Trails, or opt for serene hikes amidst nature’s embrace. The inclusivity doesn’t end on the trails; Adaptive Sports Partners will also be present at the Hardwick Spring Fest, providing an opportunity for curious minds to explore adaptive equipment and engage with the team. To secure a spot or seek further information, prospective participants are encouraged to reach out to Program Manager Kerry Hussey at kerry@adaptivesportspartners.org or dial 802-427-4116. In the heart of Hardwick, a community united by the joy of sports and the spirit of inclusivity awaits.  Additionally, we are seeking volunteers to help support this program; we provide all training! Join us in making a difference in the lives of others.

SATURDAY BIRD WALK ON THE HARDWICK TRAILS

Birding, Events

The Every-Saturday-in-May Bird Walks on the Hardwick Trails continue this Saturday (May 18) at 7:00am with Lucian Avery. Lucian brings good humor and a world of both flora AND fauna expertise. So, we can learn about our birds and the about the plants that support them.

We meet at the Trails kiosk behind the Hazen Union parking lot.

Last weeks’ birders found 28 species, including a NEW one for our Bird List. (It is the chubby little Junco that we had somehow never recorded.) Maybe there will be another new one this time. Come and see.

The Hardwick Trails Committee sponsors these free events and welcomes seasoned and beginner birders of all ages. Questions? Call Norma Wiesen at 802-472-6517.

It’s Spring, at last! That means the Every-Saturday-in-May Bird Walks on the
Hardwick Trails. Local birders extraordinaire help birders, young and not-as-
young, hear and see who’s on the wing in our woods.

Dave Brown of Craftsbury leads the first walk, May 4 at 7:00 AM. Dave’s expertise
and good humor make his walks a fun adventure. Meet at the Trails kiosk, behind
the Hazen Union parking lot.
As of June 2023, birders had identified 86 species on the Trails. How many will we
find? Who will find a new one? Only one way to know. See you on May 4!
