GetSetUp Athletes, Springer Madonna Hanna, and The GetSetUp Arch Rivals, Champion Active Aging as returning Sponsored Athletes at the 2025 National Senior Games
This marks the second consecutive National Senior Games for these sponsored athletes and highlights GetSetUp’s continued commitment to empowering older adults to defy age stereotypes, stay active, and connect through shared passions.
Celebrating Returning Champions
The GetSetUp Arch Rivals, a dynamic women’s 70+ volleyball team from Missouri, are back with more drive and unity than ever. After competing as the Arch Rivals in 2023 and proudly qualifying again with a gold medal win at the 2024 Missouri State Senior Games, they’ve added “GetSetUp” to their team name to reflect the ongoing sponsorship and shared mission.
Led by Captain Virginia Buckles, the 2025 team includes Pat Dittmeier, Terri Durand, Kathy Harris, Linda McClanahan, Melanie Morton, Marian Murff, and Deb Pugh. Coach Mark Harris returns to lead the charge. Their longstanding camaraderie, dedication to fitness, and vibrant team spirit are as inspiring off the court as they are on it.
Also returning as a GetSetUp Athlete is Madonna Hanna, a 71-year-old sprinter from Washington who returns to the 50M and 100M track events after earning gold in the 4x100M relay in 2023. A former fashion marketing teacher turned national athlete, Madonna exemplifies resilience, having overcome injury and personal loss to thrive again under the coaching of Marcus Chambers, a three-time Olympic hopeful. Madonna was also selected to be the Washington State flag holder for the 2025 National Senior Games Celebration of Athletes event.
“Supporting older adults in achieving their goals is a passion of both mine and my co-founder Neil Dsouza,” said Lawrence Kosick, Co-Founder and President of GetSetUp. “The National Senior Games is a powerful platform to redefine perceptions of aging, and we are proud to uplift athletes like Madonna and the GetSetUp volleyball team, [the GetSetUp Arch Rivals], who inspire their peers to live fully and boldly.”

Ze względu na różnice w cenach surowce wtórne przegrywają z pierwotnymi. To powoduje problemy branży recyklingowej
Rozporządzenie PPWR stawia ambitne cele w zakresie wykorzystania recyklatów w poszczególnych rodzajach opakowań. To będzie oznaczało wzrost popytu na materiały wtórne pochodzące z recyklingu. Obecnie problemy branży recyklingu mogą spowodować, że popyt będzie zaspokajany głównie przez import. Dziś do dobrowolnego wykorzystania recyklatów nie zachęcają przede wszystkim ceny – surowiec pierwotny można kupić taniej niż ten z recyklingu.

Rośnie presja konkurencyjna na unijne rolnictwo. Bez rekompensat sytuacja rolników może się pogarszać
Rolnictwo i żywność, w tym rybołówstwo, są sektorami strategicznymi dla UE. System rolno-spożywczy, oparty na jednolitym rynku europejskim, wytwarza ponad 900 mld euro wartości dodanej. Jego konkurencyjność stoi jednak przed wieloma wyzwaniami – to przede wszystkim eksport z Ukrainy i niedługo także z krajów Mercosur, a także presja związana z oczekiwaniami konsumentów i Zielonym Ładem. Bez rekompensat rolnikom może być trudno tym wyzwaniom sprostać.

Infrastruktury ładowania elektryków przybywa w szybkim tempie. Inwestorzy jednak napotykają szereg barier
Liczba punktów ładowania samochodów elektrycznych wynosi dziś ok. 10 tys., a tempo wzrostu wynosi ok. 50 proc. r/r. Dynamika ta przez wiele miesięcy była wyższa niż wyniki samego rynku samochodów elektrycznych, na które w poprzednim roku wpływało zawieszenie rządowych dopłat do zakupu elektryka. Pierwszy kwartał br. zamknął się 22-proc. wzrostem liczby rejestracji w ujęciu rocznym, ale kwiecień przyniósł już wyraźne odbicie – o 100 proc.
