Hi! I’m Allison, and I compete in Rhythmic Gymnastics for Team Ontario. I first got involved because I kept saying I wanted to do 10-pin bowling, and someone suggested I try Special Olympics — then other activities came along.
Special Olympics has allowed me to meet people and connect with others.
One of my proudest moments was winning my bowling trophy. I am also proud of my medals for rhythmic gymnastics.
I attend fundraisers in my community.
Being part of Team Ontario means I get to travel and meet new people and get a chance to go to Worlds.
My advice? Don’t get distracted and don’t overthink — have fun!
