Young Athletes and Special Olympics
It is the ARC’s goal to empower individuals with intellectual disabilities to become physically fit, productive and respected members of society, by offering opportunities to develop and demonstrate their talents through sport training and competition and by increasing the public’s awareness of their capabilities and needs. It will all start with Young Athletes. Young Athletes introduces children, ages 2 – 7, both with and without intellectual disabilities, and their families to the world of Special Olympics by pursuing program goals. Brian and Chelsey are setting a fall and spring session. This will be run thru the YMCA for eight weeks.
