At the trailhead in Voorheesville, Kennsington English proudly displayed her age with her three fingers as she walked the Helderberg Hudson Rail Trail in June with her parents to celebrate the solstice. Vendors, displaying everything from reptiles to paintings, lined the light-dappled trail. The village had applied for a $1.2 million grant to make a visitor’s center — a replica of the original train station — that didn’t come through but Mayor Robert Conway said he plans to seek other grants and possibly use funds from the budget to move forward on limited improvements.
