ATHLETE OF THE WEEK | GRANT KORGAN

“It’s not about what I’ve done, it’s about what I’m going to do.”

Grant is one of the 16 High Fives Athletes that are highlighted in the Reno-Tahoe International Airport DepARTures gallery exhibit!

The co-owner of the professional snowmobile team “Alpine Assassins”, Grant was hurt in March of 2010 while filming for the movie, “Alpine AssassiNATION”. Grant suffered a L-1 burst fracture that left him paralyzed from the waist down. The Winter Empowerment Fund has aided in Grant’s recovery which enabled him to become the first adaptive athlete to reach the south pole. Learn more about Grant HERE.
