Special Olympics Summer Games!!



Well, it's off to Charleston for 3 days to photograph the Special Olympics Summer Games! The Opening Ceremony begins at 8:30 at Haddad Park right on the levy. Can't wait for the fireworks...they've been pretty spectacular in the past! Why not come and join us? The athletes are amazing as they compete in Track & Field, Golf, Bocce, Swimming, Cycling, Softball, Tennis and Wheelchair Races. All events are at different venues but center around the University of Charleston Field (former Laidley Field) right by the capitol. As official photographers of the games, we're afforded access to some of the most inspiring events you'll ever see! The lighting of the torch is my favorite....no admission charged! And our hats off to Wendy's for providing all the lunches for Saturday and Sunday!
