FAMILY AND FREINDS
 
Parents, guardians, caregivers, and friends of Special Olympics Ontario Kitchener-Waterloo (SOOKW) athletes play an important role in each athlete's success. You make a difference by encouraging athletes to make healthy lifestyle choices, by cheering them on at practices and competitions, and by providing all-around support.

Family and friends also play an important role in the SOOKW organization by helping to create a positive environment at Special Olympics events and by getting involved as administrative volunteers and coaches.

At the same time, involvement in SOOKW provides family and friends of Special Olympics athletes with opportunities to:

  • Experience the satisfaction of watching your loved one develop and succeed in sport and in life!

  • Meet others who understand the unique rewards and challenges of having a loved one with an intellectual disability.

  • Get involved in Special Olympics athletic and social functions and fundraising events.

  • Develop a network of support and friendship with athletes and volunteers.

Introducing

The DIRTY DASH

Special Olympics Kitchener-Waterloo is planning its first annual, friendly, yet competitive, race to raise funds for our remarkable organization.

The race will be held July 18th, 2010 and we need help from a large group of volunteers.

We also require volunteer coordinators for pre-race planning (beginning now).

If you are interested in getting involved with the 'Dirty Dash', please contact Amberlee at afast@live.ca and I will give you more information and answer any questions you may have.
