HIGH FIVE #HIGHFIVESATHLETE TANELLE BOLT FOR ACHIEVING HER FIRST OF FIVE ARCADE BELT GOALS!
I can't thank High Fives enough for the support. Next stop, Truckee!#HighFivesAthlete Tanelle Bolt
TANELLE BECAME A PARAPLEGIC WHEN SHE BROKE HER BACK WHILE FREE JUMPING OFF A 60′ BRIDGE. THE IMPACT RESULTED IN A COMPLETE INJURY FROM HER T6 VERTEBRAE DOWN.
WHILE TANELLE WANTS TO ACHIEVE THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF GETTING BACK ON HER FEET, SHE HOPES TO ACHIEVE THE GOAL OF BECOMING A SOUGHT AFTER PARA-CANADIAN ATHLETE AS BOTH A SUMMER (SURFING) & WINTER (MONOSKIING) COMPETITOR.
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.
