There are many people we would like to thank who helped us in this project. We could never have done it without them. They are our teachers, athletes, people who helped us contact athletes, other contacts, and our parents.
We would first like to thank our teachers Ms. Adams and Mrs. Roderman for helping us revise our website, being there at after school meetings, supplying us with treats, and being there to encourage us (not to find things for us). We would also like to thank Mr. Cook for letting us work on the project sometimes during class, and for starring in our movie. Ms. Borombozin, our Language Arts teacher, immediately noticed spelling and grammatical errors and made sure they were fixed. We would also like to thank Christine, our resident artist who worked so hard on our pictures.
We would next like to thank the athletes that we e-mailed such as Chantal Benoit, Thomas Kennedy, Denise Beckwith, Pete, Don Elgin, Norma Koplick, and Dory Selinger who without, our project would be boring. You can learn more about them at our meet some of the athletes page.
We would like to give a big thanks to Mr. Bronwyn Campbell who helped us contact many of our athletes. He e-mailed us throughout the competition. Mr. Campbell is of the Australian Paralympic committee is our new friend.
We would also like to thank our other very important contacts. They are Dr. Susanne Reiff and Hilal Eyuboglu who helped us find Mr. Campbell. Also, we would like to thank Karen McMillan and Mr. Hawkins.
Last but certainly not least, is our parents. We would like to thank them for changing their busy schedules to get us to early morning meetings, picking us up from after school meetings, putting up with us using the computers 24-7 to find information, and for getting up early on Saturday mornings to get us to our morning meetings.
Thank you so much
for helping us! We appreciate it so much.
