Special Olympics

Special Olympics is a year round program offering Olympic type sports to children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Through Special Olympics people with intellectual disabilities enjoy the opportunity to be treated as people, not just as disabled. Through sports our athletes gain self confidence, social competency, and other enhanced skills, both social and physical.
