Hi! I’m Rose, and I compete in Swimming for Team Ontario! I first learned about Special Olympics from my Grade 9 teacher, and I’ve now been involved for 14 years.
Special Olympics has made a big difference in my life — especially through staying active and building strength. One of my proudest achievements has been making it to the Canada Games and now to Nationals.
I enjoy helping out with fundraisers whenever I can, and I’m grateful to be part of Team Ontario at the 2026 National Games.
My advice? Never give up on your goals, even when things get tough.
