Tennessee House Of Representatives Honors Jayme Salisbury For Special Olympics Gold Medal Wins

  • Thursday, March 27, 2025

Orange Grove Center will host a special presentation honoring Special Olympics gold medalist Jayme Salisbury on Friday, April 4, at 1:30 p.m. Mr. Salisbury will be honored by members of the Tennessee legislator with the Tennessee House Joint Resolution No. 208 in celebration of his outstanding achievements in the 2025 Tennessee Special Olympics Winter Games.

Competing in Gatlinburg in January, Mr. Salisbury secured two gold medals in the snowboard slalom and snowboard giant slalom events. Remarkably, Mr. Salisbury had only ever practiced once, just the day before the competition.

The Resolution No. 208 commends his dedication, determination, work ethic and talent, which were on full display during the competition. 

The community is invited to join Orange Grove in celebrating this momentous occasion at Orange Grove Center’s main campus, 615 Derby St., as Mr. Salisbury’s accomplishments are recognized.
