Great Friends Greetings has announced that Kerri Strug, best known for her courageous pressure-filled vault with a badly injured ankle at the very end of the '96 Olympics' team gymnastics competition, has joined their rapidly growing roster of Great Friends. As such, Kerri will be featured in the company's new and very unique line of customer created personalized greetings.
Great Friends Greetings cards are beautifully printed top quality greetings from great athletes and famous celebrities, designed as special one of a kind keepsakes.
Visitors to the Great Friends Greetings website, www.greatfriendsgreetings.com, can personalize a card from Kerri to their recipient by selecting a stunning 5x7 photo of Kerri for their card front and composing a perfect message for the inside. (They can also be identified as the card's author on the back). Great Friends Greetings supplies Kerri's signature and custom prints each card, shipping them in protective mailers so they arrive in perfect condition.
"We are very excited that Kerri has joined us," said Kenny Perschetz, Great Friends Greetings' President. Anyone who watched the Atlanta Olympics will always remember Kerri's incredible performance. It was one of the special moments in Olympic history. But, while Kerri is most remembered for that one vault, we should also celebrate her long career
as one of the top gymnasts in America."
Kerri Strug has won both Olympic Gold and Bronze medals. She was the youngest member of the entire US Olympic team in 1992. Her injury in the '96 Games prevented her from competing in the all-around, vault and floor exercise individual competitions, for which she had qualified. Kerri has been inducted in the Gymnastics Hall of Fame.
