Cameron has been competing for Special Olympics Colorado for three years. When he was younger, Cameron was involved with Special Olympics Indiana as a swimmer and later competed on the Unified track team at Fruita High School. Now, he enjoys skiing and basketball.

Cameron’s favorite memory with Special Olympics was earlier this year when he had the opportunity to hold the torch at the State Winter Games at Copper Mountain during the Law Enforcement Torch Run. He enjoyed seeing everyone cheer him on as he participated in Winter Game’s Opening Ceremonies, it was an honor he will never forget.

Cameron’s favorite sport is skiing and he cannot wait to get back on the slopes to ski and hang out with his teammates. When he’s not on the slopes, Cameron enjoys hiking and stand up paddleboarding.

“Cameron is always in an uplifting mood, he is a wonderful athlete and is loved dearly by his friends, peers, family, and team,” said Western Regional Manager, Michelle Pewters.

Congratulations on being nominated as our August Athlete of the Month, Cameron!
