On March 2, 2018 #HighFivesAthlete Beth Requist, an accomplished monoskier, achieved her Arcade Belts goal of skiing The Cirque, Winter Park Resort’s most challenging terrain!
Words By Program Services Director, Steve Wallace
“Getting back to skiing The Cirque and terrain I used to before my accident was an indescribable feeling,” said Beth. “I had a huge smile on my face the entire time and am so grateful for my friends and family that came out to support me.”
Skiing The Cirque was always been a goal for Beth, even before the High Fives X Arcade Belt Program, and she was happy to check it off her list. She now has her sights set on her next goal in the program…stay tuned!
THE BELT PROGRAM, WHICH IS SIMILAR TO A KARATE BELT SYSTEM, REWARDS HIGH FIVES ATHLETES WITH AN ARCADE BELT CONTAINING A NEW GOLD STAR FOR EACH MILESTONE ACHIEVED. THIS FRAMEWORK IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE CLARITY, SUPPORT, COMPETITION AND INSPIRATION FOR OTHERS AS THESE ATHLETES WORK TO REBUILD THEIR LIVES.
