I was always wondering how to get involved in the special Olympics. does anyone know how to go about doing this? I see it as a great chance to be involved and would really like to be a part of it in some shape or form. So if anyone has any information please let me know?

Here is some information about special olympics, this lady seems really nice and my teacher gave me her number, hope this helps!!!
I am currently working on a new project at Richmond Parks and Recreation for our Special Olympics athletes. Since its inception in 1968, Special Olympics has established itself as a preeminent global organization offering sports training and competition opportunities to people with intellectual disabilities ages 8 and above. Over the years, families of children too young to compete looked for avenues to join the movement. Special Olympics is now welcoming these future athletes and families through Young Athletes — a developmentally appropriate play program for children with intellectual disabilities ages 2 through 7. I am asking you as student volunteers to help me begin this program. We are hoping to hold the program from November 4-25, every Tuesday from 4-5pm. We have not set the date to train volunteers yet, we ourselves will not be trained until October 13th.Thank you so much for helping in my first steps to a wonderful new developmental program for our Richmond community. If you need to get in touch with me, please feel free to contact me at 859-623-8753 or 502-321-4023.
Sincerely,
