Community Voices: Aidan on what Gaithersburg gets right

I really love North Potomac because of how peaceful and tranquil it is. It is very lush and there's so much greenery.

Aidan Wang (Swimming & Diving, Princeton University) grew up in Gaithersburg. HelloNation asks student athletes one question about the place that raised them and records the answer on camera. This is Aidan Wang’s, in full.

The question

Tell us about a person or business doing something worth knowing about in your hometown — the town you grew up in, not your college town. Who are they, what are they doing, and why should people outside your hometown hear about it?

The answer, as recorded

Transcript. What follows is a transcript of the video above, in Aidan Wang’s own words. It has not been rewritten, and no part of it was drafted for them.

I really love North Potomac because of how peaceful and tranquil it is. It is very lush and there's so much greenery. There are so many cool places nearby to just hang out, like Big Pines Park, community centers, and Rio Washingtonian, and Kentwood Square. It's really got that suburban charm, and there are so many nearby cities to visit, too. So it's a great location to visit any major city like D.C. or anywhere else on the East Coast.
