Frances Stevens Reese Woodland Trail Guide
The Woodland Trail was opened to the public on October 21, 1997. Boscobel's Board of Directors adopted a formal decision of naming the Woodland Trail in honor of former Boscobel board member, Frances Stevens Reese (1917-2003), one year after his death.
The trail (小径) is approximately 10 miles in length, leading down to Constitution Forest. When the West Point Glass Factory was operating during the Civil War, trees for miles around were cleared to provide firewood. Walking out of the forest, you will find a large mass of native hard rock about three billion years old.
Throughout this country path, you will find picture boards identifying birds and plants local to this region. You will also find signs with historic and environmental information written by area specialists.
When you take a walk through this “undiscovered” forest land, please be a considerate guest.

Kevin, diagnosed with Dyslexia (读写困难症), rarely spoke a word in class, and if he did, it would be a “Yes,” “No,” or “Maybe,” in response to questions. He always scored badly in tests and saw no hope for the future. That was until he met Sarah, an advisor at a youth centre Kidpreneur.
In 2012, Kevin attended a course called Ready Set Go in that centre. The course was for disadvantaged kids in Kingswood -- a low-income area in Sydney’s western suburbs -- and its goal was to teach the kids how to create businesses and offer value to the neighborhood.
At the end of the course, Sarah took the kids to the local area. She asked volunteers to share their business experiences -- Kevin immediately put up his hand. His challenge was to trade his hot-dog selling service for free bread at a bakery. Although scared, Kevin was able to share his entrepreneur (创业) story with the shop owner and asked if he could exchange his service for some bread. Unexpectedly, the shop owner told Kevin how moved he was

A woman held her phone tightly to her heart the way a church-goer might hold a Bible. She was anxious to take a picture of an impressive bunch of flowers that sat not so far away, but first she had to get through a crowd of others pushing their way to do the same. The cause of this was to Art, one of the most popular events at the de Young Museum in San Francisco. Flower sellers were asked to create flower arrangements that respond to pieces of art on display from ancient carvings to contemporary sculptures. It's extremely attractive and also memorable to the point that it has become a problem.
In recent years, the de Young received more than a thousand complaints from people who felt that cell phones had spoiled their experience of the exhibit. Institutions of fine art around the world face similar problems as the desire to take photographs becomes a huge attraction for museums, as well as something that upsets some of their patrons
