Special Olympics Track Meet
On April 22, members of the RiverHills team volunteered at the Fourth Annual Special Olympics Track meet held at New Richmond High School. Over 150 athletes ranging in ages from 4 to 30 plus competed in walking, running, and wheelchair races, along with various field events.
This event enabled young athletes to compete in a fun supportive environment, while bringing their families and communities together. Athletes were honored with a parade walk on the track to kick off the track meet. Event winners were awarded with a podium style medal presentation.
Our team was incredibly grateful to not only witness, but also assist in making such a heartwarming experience possible for the athletes and their families.
