This week I got the privilege to work with the Berea Parks and Recreation's event called Backyard Games! The Backyard Games were much like Special Olympics but on a much smaller scale. This event was free to the public and was strictly for those with disabilities. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever done. I had so much fun! We played parachute games, Frisbee, blew bubbles, played 4 square and sharks n' minnows all night. It was such a rewarding activity. I love my parks and rec major! I am so lucky to be able to work with such amazing people like these kids! :)
I was so sad to miss this! I volunteer with the Madison County Special Olympics and they invited me to come with them to the backyard games. I had to work unfortunately but it sounded really fun!
