My Adventure at the 2014 Carroll County Special Olympics

700

By Charles Rachel

I had the opportunity to go on an outing to see the Special Olympics and cheer on our friends and clients of The Arc Carroll County. Unfortunately, this year’s event was shortened because of rainy weather conditions. My real Adventure began as we were leaving to return to The Arc. As I was following a few people from the group, they got a bit ahead of me and I lost them. I hung out with a student from Winters mill High School while attempting to locate the group. I searched everywhere I could think of at Westminster High School to find them. The staff was doing the same. We were all relieved to be reunited. I have always shared a special bond with the staff. After reuniting, we agreed that our bond has accelerated to a whole new level! Just like the staff for me, there is nothing I wouldn’t do for each and every one of them. I love them all very much.
