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.

●Before walking the trail, please purchase a pass in the

Carriage House. Plan ahead, so you will be back by closing time.

●Follow the trail markers and remain on the trail. Besides

protecting the fragile forest ecosystem, you will reduce the risk

of poison plants and snakes.

●Leave rocks, plants, animals and art works where you see

them so that the person behind you can have the same

experience.

●Carry out whatever you carry in because there are no

rubbish containers on the trail. If you happen to see a piece of

litter, be a good guest and pick it up.

I used to watch her from my kitchen window, she seemed so

small as she muscled her way through the crowd of boys on the

playground. The school was across the street from our home and

I would often watch the kids as they played during break. A sea

of children, and yet to me, she stood out from them all.

I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball. I

watched in wonder as she ran circles around the other kids. She

managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the

net. The boys always tried to stop her but no one could. I began

to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone.

She would practice dribbling and shooting over and over again,

sometimes until dark. One day I asked her why she practiced so

much. She looked directly in my eyes and without a moment of

hesitation she sa id, “I want to go to college. The only way I can

go is if I get a scholarship. I like basketball. I decided that if I were

good enough, I would get a scholarship. I am going to play

college basketball. I want to be the best. My Daddy told me if the

dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.”

Then she smiled and ran towards the court to repeat the

routine I had seen over and over again. Well, I had to give it to

her--she was determined. I watched her through those junior

high years and into high school. Every week, she led her team to

victory. One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass,

head cradled in her arms.

I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass

beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. “Oh, nothing,” came a soft reply. “I am just too short.” The coach told her that

at 5’55’’ she would probably never get to play for a top

ranked team--much less offered a scholarship--so she should

stop dreaming about college. She was heartbroken and I felt my

own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment.

I asked her if she had talked to her dad about it yet. She lifted

her head from her hands and told me that her father said those

coaches were wrong. They just did not understand the power of

a dream. He told her that if she really wanted to play for a good

college, if she truly wanted a scholarship, that nothing could stop

her except one thing--her own attitude. He told her again, “If

the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.” The next year,

as she and her team went to the Northern California
