| Oct 17 Kevin Pearce @ Spark! Community Center |
Former Olympic Hopeful Kevin Pearce and brother David Pearce at Spark! Community Center on October 17th at 6pm!
The Spark! Community Center will host a talk with Kevin Pearce, former professional snowboarder, on Friday, October 17, 2014 at 6pm at its location at 75 Bank Street in downtown Lebanon, NH.
Kevin suffered a traumatic brain injury while attempting a Cab double cork in the halfpipe in Park City, Utah on December 31, 2009 at the peak of his Olympic training. Now he is an internationally renowned sports commentator, motivational speaker, and advocate for education and research on traumatic brain injury. He is also a Sports Ambassador for the National Down Syndrome Society.
David Pearce is the third of four brothers in the Pearce family. Now 28 years old, he lives in his own home in Vermont, which he shares with two housemates. David’s weekdays are filled with three different part-time paid jobs: working in the offices of a local payroll agency, in the operations department of a fitness center and in the warehouse and offices of his parents’ business. In his free time, David enjoys Special Olympics VT, a social club (of which he is a founding member) and a Men’s Group which meets once per month. David was an important part of Kevin’s recovery process and has often been called “the secret star” of The Crash Reel!
The Pearce brothers are sons of world-renowned glassware designer Simon Pearce, who has had a glassblowing factory in Quechee, Vermont since 1981.
The Pearce brothers will talk about their lives, their 2013 HBO documentary film “The Crash Reel” and the social movement they have spearheaded that brings people together to connect, educate and empower people through a mindful approach that focuses on brain injury prevention, rehabilitation and brain health. Refreshments will be provided.
A $10 donation is suggested per person.
All proceeds will benefit The Spark! Community Center, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing social and educational opportunities for individuals with special needs throughout the Upper Valley. Spark! believes in an integrated society where everyone is valued for their abilities rather than their disabilities. Its core philosophy is that everyone has a hidden talent or gift worth sharing with the world -- a “spark” if you will. Too often that spark is overlooked in people with disabilities, which is why a community center was created to help them reach their full potential while it strengthens their ties to the community. |
