My sport:

Alpine Skiing

 

My favourite thing about Special Olympics:

My favorite thing about Special Olympics is the atmosphere. The positivity is great.

 

My greatest accomplishment:

In February, I went to Thunder Bay Ontario. I won 3 gold medals for Alberta! I won Gold in Giant Slalom, Slalom and Super G! I also was picked to be Special Olympics Male Athlete of the year award for Edmonton!

 

How Special Olympics changed my life:

Special Olympics has given me a sport that I can participate in and a team to be a part of. I also have gotten to travel.

 

How I've been staying healthy and active at home:

I have been going on walks and bike rides. I also like to go on my scooter. I also do some workout exercises at home.

 

My favourite memory:

My favorite memory is traveling to Thunder Bay and staying in the hotel.

 

Why you should Draft an Athlete to help us get back to the playing field:  

Special Olympics helps people who may not have had a chance to participate in sport or team activities and have a community that supports them. It helps people do the sports they love in a helpful and supportive environment. 

 

What I'm looking forward to most when returning to our regular Special Olympics programming:

Skiing! I have missed skiing and being with the team!
