--- Quote ---Amy Purdy talks about the power of imagination. She explains how our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but by the choices we make. Imagination allows us to break down borders, to move beyond our circumstances, to create and constantly progress.
Amy Purdy has been through hardships that most of us will never face -- or can even fathom. But what makes her story so incredible is not that fact that she lived a "normal" childhood and spent her high school years as a passionate artist and snowboarder, then traumatically lost both her legs at age 19, but how she has persevered, taking implausible challenges and rising above them.
Today, Amy is an athlete; currently the top ranked adaptive female snowboarder in the world. Amy also spends a good amount of time helping others; specifically those with physical challenges get involved with snowboarding, skateboarding, wakeboarding and other action sports through the organization she co-founded Adaptive Action Sports. Challenging herself while making a positive impact on the world is a true testament to Amy's spirit.

Meet our Michigan team!
Gary Wojnar and Will Chiola!
Gary Wojnar is from Livonia, Michigan and is our taller teammate. Will Chiola (53) from Dearborn Heights, Michigan is our shorter teammate. Will is a marathon runner and has competed in marathons across America over the past decade. Both Gary & Will appear to be avid cyclists (just like Phil! :lol:) and are involved in the Wish-A-Mile Bicycle Tour for the Make-A-Wish Michigan organization. Gary is on the left of all these photos, Will on the right.
