They have great work ethics and totally deserve this honour

It is important to recognize all athletes that represent our country and not just the ones that are paid well for what they do. This would be a great step forward to show we support our special Olympics athletes and so they are just as important as our other athletes. Helps with inclusion for all.

I know Katie and Jack because my daughter is in the Special Olympics skating club with them. All the other kids look up to these two as great role-models of what can be achieved with hard work and determination.
