Also in the photo is Dale Hawtin. Melanie will compete in the Canadian Nationals in July. The Christopher Lockwood Scholarship Foundation donated $5,000 to the Golden Horseshoe Disabled Sports Association to help Melanie with her costs of flights to Switzerland and England so she could compete with athletes in her class to better her racing times. This year the Paralympics are in September, two weeks after the Olympics. Melanie is trying to secure a position on the senior team within the next few racing seasons. Melanie is the top development female athlete in her class for Canada for 2007 and ranks second in the world. Community Involvement is what we're all about.
