Outdoors for All: Susan Camicia

Susan Camicia is a legal assistant in the law firm of Danielson Harrigan Leyh & Tollefson; shes been with the firm for thirteen years. Susan also has been an active athlete all of her life. Shes cycled around the South Island of New Zealand in 2004 and rode her bike from Seattle to San Francisco in 2005 to raise money for the American Lung Association.

In June 2006 though, while training for a triathlon, her life was forever changed when she was in a cycling accident. She hit a bollard on a path, flipped over her handlebars and broke her neck.

Susan was the featured speaker at the October 25, 2008 Outdoors for All Gala Auction and received two standing ovations! She inspired everyone in attendance. Susan described how Outdoors for All has made a difference in her life since her injury and how hand cycling and skiing with a bi-ski have helped make it possible for her to get outside and be active!
