The Hudson River has inspired me since I moved to the mid-Hudson Valley after attending college in Troy, NY. I've supported the River Pool at Beacon since the first Annual Great Newburgh to Beacon Hudson River Swim in 2004. I swim in the wake of Pete Seeger who believed that River stewardship begins with being on, near and in the river.
The Hudson River also inspired my recovery from breast cancer - https://www.youtube.com
