ROWDY V. THE GIRLS
Olympic Champ Poised to Take on Top Female Swimmers

The last time you saw Growing Bolder contributor Rowdy Gaines, he was calling the Olympic swimming competition in London. The next time you see him, it will be in the pool for the greatest intergenerational cross-gender showdown in swimming history. Rowdy, who recalls being "devastated" when Billie Jean King beat Bobby Riggs in the infamous Battle of the Sexes tennis match in 1973, is ready for redemption for all the men out there. This weekend, the 53-year-old three-time Olympic gold medalist will take on four of the six fastest 50 yard freestylers in women’s swimming history. Read on to find out how Rowdy plans to show "an old man can still keep up with today’s women swimmers."

CELEBRATING GRANDPARENTS
A POWERFUL BOND


This weekend is National Grandparents Day. For many of us, our grandparents shaped the people we are today, but for far too long, our elders have not been receiving the honor and respect they deserve. That's changing. There's a movement underway in this country. Here are some people who are honoring their grandparents in very big ways:

-- When Adam Forgie posted a video of his 90-year-old grandmother dancing to a pop song, neither of them expected her to become an international celebrity.
-- Two-time Olympian and 11-time World Cup gold medalist Jeremy Bloom credits two people for making his dreams come true -- his grandparents. To honor their example and memory, Jeremy is helping grant wishes for those 80 and over.
-- Four generations. One 94-year-old. An 18th birthday. And one incredible extreme celebration -- skydiviing as a family. Wait until you meet the Shepard family.
