Best Special Olympics Memory: | My most memorable sport accomplishment was when I won both of the medals in 2016. I was especially excited and surprised when I won the gold medal for breast stroke because I did not expect that. |
Hobbies and Activities: | Playing games/cards, sports, playing Wii, camp, baking, colouring and going to movies. |
Message to Sponsors: | I would like to thank the sponsors for their support. Special Olympics is very important to me because even though I have a disability it makes me realize I can do many things and never give up. It has helped me build my confidence and grow as a person. It makes me happy that I get to meet new friends, and see the friends I have already made. It has been such a positive experience for me being part of the Special Olympic teams and events. I love being part of a place where I am accepted as who I am and without great sponsors and supporters this would not be possible. |
