In The News

IMPACT AWARD WINNER-VOLUNTEER: Chablis Adams started assisting the new Loudoun Dance team at Method Gym when it started two years ago and she has taught a Jazz/Hip hop class in every season. She now is assisting the new Fitness program, also at Method, and works so well with our athletes! It really is hard to see that she is the teacher and not one of the dancers. She burns as many calories as the dancers in class and they love her! Thanks so much Chablis!

IMPACT AWARD WINNER-ATHLETE: Bill Mahood has been in Special Olympics for many years. He has played basketball, softball and cycling and TopGolf in most recent years and is a steady addition to teams. He is a catcher in softball, a challenging position to say the least, and is a speed demon in cycling! Bill always has a smile on his face and is friendly to everyone he comes across. Congratulations Bill!

Special Olympics – Loudoun County has, over 3 years, doubled the number of athletes participating in our programs and doubled the number of sports locations offered. A big thank you to our Council and the volunteers who continue to show up in a big way.
