On April 15, our school’s unified track and field team traveled to Delaware Valley to participate in the 17th annual Northeast Region Special Olympics. It was a large event that welcomed all different schools and programs from around the area. The meet began with the Parade of Champions where the athletes were welcomed to the stadium by their spectators. There were a variety of events that the athletes could choose to compete in. There was throwing, long jump, high jump, running, walking, and wheelchair events. Our team would like to thank the sponsors from Delaware Valley for making this event possible. Although there were no scores kept at this meet, each person left feeling like a winner, having participated in an event revolving around inclusion of athletes of all different abilities.
