For the upcoming New Brunswick Special Olympics Winter Games, we’ve been working on a project with Jordan Pinder, taking photos of our local athletes where they display their sport of choice for the games. Jordan is a local photographer who specializes in commercial and personal photography, and is a talented photo editor/photoshop artist. He has even taught us how to take and edit the pictures. Last week, some of our athletes came to MV and we began the photoshoot. We will be creating a poster for each and every one of our local athletes. Many of the athletes were very excited to get their picture taken by our very own Kale who took all the pictures himself! We also asked the athletes for quotes on if they are excited for the games, and it’s safe to say they are very pumped!

We are so proud to say that Ashlin Adams (see link attached for our nomination) has been approved as an addition to the Miramichi Sports Wall of Fame! He is 1 of 4 athletes to be inducted this year, and is the first Special Olympian to be recognized. Congratulations Ashlin!

Miramichi Sports Wall of Fame Nomination: Ashlin Adams

Our class just nominated Ashlin Adams for the Miramichi Sports Wall of Fame. If chosen for February 2019, he will be the first Special Olympian to be named to the wall. Ashlin has competed internationally in three World Games for Special Olympics: Alaska 2001; Nanano 2005; Shanghai 2007. He competed in snowshoeing and athletics. We interviewed him and his mother, and they were so appreciative of us thinking of him. We are amazed at all that Ashlin has accomplished as an athlete. We know he is very deserving to be on the Wall. Please see attached the nomination we did for him.
