The time for another year of Special Olympics has begun. The first practice/informational meeting will be Wednesday (September 3rd) after school from 3:15-4:15 PM in Room 1404. Special Olympics celebrates the abilities, achievements, and spirit of athletes with disabilities, and we need enthusiastic student volunteers to help make it a success. As a volunteer, you may help with: 

• Assisting athletes at events and practices

• Cheering on participants and creating a supportive atmosphere

• Helping with setup, cleanup, and event logistics

Volunteering for Hononegah Special Olympics is a chance to make a difference, build your resume, and be part of a truly inspiring experience. If you are interested in volunteering please talk to coach Loft in room 1403 or attend a practice.
