We Have an Olympian! Peter Michael: 2018 Winter Olympics: Speed Skating

Most of you will be aware of Peter Michael's earlier successes with speed skating and making it to the Winter Olympics this year in Pyeong Chang.  This is such an incredible feat we wanted to ensure we celebrated Peter and his team on such an achievement.  Below is a link to an article about Peter's speed skating story as well as their time at the Olympics this year.  So close to a podium finish, however 4th place on the world stage is so very impressive and we are all proud.  Congratulations Peter, from everyone in the Dunedin Lebanese Community. 

For those of you who don’t know Peter’s links to the Dunedin Lebanese Community, his father is John Michael son of Fred and Olga Michael. It’s sad that Fred and Olga didn’t get to see their grandson compete at the Olympics but they were alive when he was a world champion speed skater.
