Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween
From your friends at Special Olympics
On behalf of Special Olympics Virginia and the Piedmont Region, we would like to wish all of our athletes and volunteers a Happy Halloween! Whether you are taking your children out trick or treating, heading to a costume party, or parking yourself on the couch in front of a scary movie, we hope you have a great weekend… And be sure to eat lots of candy!
