A
A
Sam
Peters,
who
hails
from
West
Kelowna,
has
made
the
team
BC
parallel
para
team
and
will
be
competing
in
the
Canada
winter
games
this
week
at
Mount
crab
in
New
Brunswick
the
15
year
old,
new
member
of
big
white
razors,
who
joined
the
team.
Just
this
year
has
enjoyed
skiing
for
the
past
eight
years.
Sam
attributes
his
success
to
the
volunteers
at
powder
hounds
on
Big
White
Mountain,
who
work
with
the
disabled
to
get
them
onto
the
mountain
Sam's
physical
setbacks
have
never
stopped
him
from
pursuing
his
dreams
or
ambition.
A
He
has
unparalleled
courage
and
determination
and
that
have
enabled
him
to
reach
his
goals.
Despite
the
obstacles
that
he
has
faced.
Sam's
story
is
an
inspiration
to
all
of
us
and
serves
as
a
wonderful
example
that
our
abilities
are
not
defined,
but
what
we
were
able
to
do
with
our
bodies,
but
rather
how
hard
we
work.
At
the
same
time,
Sam's
story
reminds
us
of
the
importance
of
fighting
for
inclusion
and
equality
as
every
individual
deserves
to
have
the
chance
to
pursue
their
dreams
regardless
of
disability.
