Karen Butler

“Our own Festival of Youth Sport reminds us that the potential to achieving the highest starts with home grown talent.” It's no jest. Karen works for the Girl Guides, the finest. She has spina bifida causing weak legs, And started shooting in the year of 1984, With the Duke of Edinburgh, open door, The top award scheme where you core. Stoke Mandeville introduced her to guns, And she first shot in 1991 at the Euros, Which were there with Belgium portfolios, In the big West Flanders city of Bruges. Karen made her debut at the Paralympics Of Barcelona in Spain in the year 1992, And went on to enjoy more Paras, due: Three - Atlanta, Sydney and Rio with ado. She thoroughly enjoyed Operation Raleigh, Which was a disability trek to two islands, Over the Atlantic to Turks, Caicos sands, Where she dived among the coral strands.
