Becky Stolker Capstone

For my capstone project I volunteered with the organization Special Olympics. Every Sunday from October to May since 2016. I shadowed a high school senior who was working with an athlete, Sammy. When she graduated I took over her place as Sammy’s coach. We worked on his skating skills and his program and soon (in March of 2019) went to York, PA for the national competition that they hold yearly. Each year we worked on his skating skills, skating accuracy, and his final program which has elements that are determined by the rule book for the competition. I have been a part of the Special Olympics since I was a young teenager. Having the Special Olympic values ingrained in me from a young age made me have a more open minded look on life.
