| Shelley received Gold medals at the 2008 State Winter Games in Figure Skating for Singles Compulsory Elements and Singles Freestyle , which qualified her for 2009 World Games. |
After lot of hard work and dedication, Shelley has now earned a spot on Team USA at the 2009 Special Olympics World Games, which will be held Feb. 6-13, 2009, in Boise, Idaho. She will join nine other SOMI athletes on Team USA.
Shelley began participating in Special Olympics events in the 1970s, when the organization was still in its infancy. Today, at 44 years old, Shelley has been involved with Special Olympics for nearly 36 years.
"She has come a long way," says her mother, Judy Wagner. "In the beginning years it was a great place to practice her independence, to meet new people and to do things that are her favorite things to do."
