Community Service - Special Olympics

Our club has a big heart... and it shows in that our members are always eager to render Service Above Self. Special Olympics is one organization that we get involved with on a regular basis. Our members go one step further and we go to these community services anytime and not only during the weekends.

So, on a Monday like today, Community Service Chair Judy Pantoja took these photos... with her cell phone and please ignore the fuzziness you see. The event took place at the Bird Bowl in South Miami today, which is an annual bowling competition for Special Olympics athletes. Many if not all of them have physical and/or mental challenges and they do appreciate the help they get from volunteers such as our group. We are there to provide them the special support they need, and we enrich ourselves in the process. The annual bowling competition spreads out over several days and we do come to all of the other days too.

Special thanks from Chair Judy to Yoli Woodbridge, Bill Quesenberry, Gene Witherspoon, Bob Schreiber, Dick Golden and Mead McCabe who came today. If she has forgotten some of you.. she is truly sorry, but thanks go to you too.
