Special Olympics West Hawaii is hosting a barbecue at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 18, at Kahaluu Beach Park.
All athletes, coaches, unified partners, volunteers, supporters, family and friends are invited.
This is an excellent opportunity for interested athletes and volunteers to learn about this year-round program, which offers sports training and competitions for people with intellectual disabilities.
At the event, participants can sign up for the various sports being offered in 2009. Awards will also be given to outstanding athletes, coaches and families.
Yearbooks highlighting special moments will be distributed. A band will perform some groovy tunes.
Those interested in bringing salads, pupu or desserts should contact Lona Warner, head of delegation, at 808-327-0491, 808-989-2080, or biglona@hotmail.com.
