ABRIELLA O'SHEA STILL can't ride a bicycle on her own, but she's healed enough that she's ready to speak out about the dangers faced by anyone who pedals along the roads. When Hannah George fi rst started talking publicly about being hit by a car in March, her voice broke. Now it carries a steadiness that refl ects her determination to see bicycle safety treated as a top priority in New Paltz, Ulster County and beyond. The two women have joined forces to build a coalition to see that vision through. The journey for O'Shea has been a longer and harder one. She was struck from be- Ghind by a driver who left the scene, but later turned herself in. O'Shea's injuries were extensive, and she Alan Barone.

Staff members have fi ne-tuned their boat design since the fi rst, which Tinger recalls was incredibly heavy, and they took second place in last week's race, as well as the award for most environ- mentally-friendly boat for its theme of, "save the bees." John House Wilson is the maritime engineer, while Andrew Vlad develops the theme each year, which according to regatta rules cannot be repeated twice in a row. Other trips that van would take include bringing kids to local swimming holes and drive-in movies in Hyde Park, where they set up a picnic area to enjoy the show. Activities that are run in the center have recently included ukulele workshops; Tinger is con- sidering another round of cooking classes. The cen- ter is also the site of the annual haunted house which serves as fundraiser as well as energy-burner. The teens also wash cars some weekends in the middle school parking lot to raise money for trips.

EW PALTZ TOWN Supervisor Neil Bettez believes that Moriello Pool could be opera- tional as soon as June 17, if the work laid N out proceeds smoothly. Board members held an emergency board meeting Monday night, May 15 to approve a prepayment of $5,250 to JD Ma- sonry, representing a 50% down payment, for prep work needed before the new liner can be installed. Holding an emergency meeting for that sole purpose could be the diff erence between opening that week- end, or not until June 24. Moriello Pool is traditionally opened for the Me- morial Day holiday weekend, and then Saturdays and Sundays only until public schools are closed, meaning seven days a week as of June 24. Every day is critical at this point in the season. The masonry work will take about a week, and the liner itself is expected to take two more weeks to install. It takes a full week to fi ll the pool, and then there’s an indeterminate number of days to balance the chemicals. Filling is done slowly because town work- ers have discovered that using larger hoses results in sediment on the pool fl oor, and resolving that issue PHOTOS BY LAUREN THOMAS eats up any gains made.

OSH BERRY ISN’T quite sure if his most cher- ished memory happened the way he recalls it -- but if it did, it was on the steps of the Ameri- Jcan Museum of Natural History, or as he calls it, “one of the best places in the world,” after a long day of exploration. He had gotten lost, wandering from the museum into the crisp autumn air. Staring out at Central Park, he remembers “ten-year-old me being really deep and being like ‘wow, you could re- ally do anything in this world.’” These days, that feeling has overtaken him more than ever -- not just as exciting new opportunities unfold in his own life, but as he looks at America’s political climate. “A lot of people say we live in a very scary time,” he muses -- and he agrees. However, Berry thinks there’s more to be said in terms of the passionate and active ways people have responded to earth-shattering, challenging change. “This is also probably one of the most wonderful times we could Josh Berry. have.
