This fantastically talented 8-year-old Maine boy participated in the Junior Olympics in New England over the weekend. His name is Kenton, and he was attempting to qualify for the 100 meter and 200 meter dash, as per a Facebook post. 

Guess what? He did it! We have officially now learned that Kenton has qualified for the Junior Olympic Nationals in Texas from July 22 to July 28! He's so fast!

If you are interested in tickets or more information head on over to USATF!

This is a stunning opportunity for a young athletic Mainer, and it's all happening so fast!

Qualifying for this experience will help young Kenton achieve his athletic dreams, but he needs your help to make it happen. Why? Because the Junior Olympic Nationals is held in Texas and is just seven days away!

Kenton and his family are asking for contributions to help him get there. By doing that, it will make a big difference in helping him pursue his passion and represent our Maine community on a national level!

If you do donate to help Kenton, the family is offering something extra special. As per the post, donators will be updated on Kenton's progress given thank-you video messages!

They will send you real-time videos if you give more $100 or more, and if your business is donating, they will shout you out in any media interviews!

Congratulations to Kenton for this amazing show of strength. All of Maine is cheering him on at the Junior Olympics!

Let's get him there!!
