1. Help Patch spotlight New Hampshire student athletes who are also great kids! Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to recognize New Hampshire student athletes for qualities that drive their competitive spirit and are all-around great kids. The Star Student Athlete Spotlight "looks beyond the final score at other qualities that make them role models." Let us know about obstacles they’ve overcome to succeed in sports and community service work they're involved in to make life better. To nominate an athlete, just fill out this form — photos are appreciated! (Bedford Patch)

3. The 2022 Girl Scouts-hosted Expo helped girls imagine a future of possibilities. If you attended the Expo this weekend, there was "a planetarium show, archery, rock climbing walls, and a giant whale." There were also stage performances and Scouts "could even drive an underwater robot." Tricia Mellor, CEO of the Girls Scouts of the Green and White Mountains, said, "this event is great because it shows girls that the sky is the limit when it comes to their future." (WMUR Manchester)

From my notebook:

• Girl Expo offered new experiences: "We had a fantastic day at the Girl Expo! From cool exhibitors to great stage shows, it was jam packed with new experiences. Stay tuned for more pictures this week. If you joined us, let us know what your favorite part was." (Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains via Facebook)
• Bedford Public Library: "Come check out our new materials in the Children's Room!" (Bedford (NH) Public Library via Facebook)
