In 1994 our athlete of the year was Michael Slaughter! Michael was an accomplished track athlete and and an avid bowler!
The difference is that Michael was blind and confined to a wheel chair.For 18 years Michal found a way by bus transportation to our events. He was a loyal participant, always interested in doing his best.
Michael passed away last week from natural causes resulting from a fall.He will be missed.He was truly "One of Our Own!"

The Grand Canyon State Games is a multi-sport Olympic Festival providing a showcase for the talents and aspirations for Arizona and America's youth regardless of age or ability and to share many of the great attributes of our state. In fact we have had a 3 year old come down the mountain in our Winter skiing event and a 99 year old gentleman throw the javelin in our Track & Field event. We truly have something for everyone.
