My personal message:

The 2008 Special Olympic Vermont Winter Games will be held at the Woodstock Inn and Resort and Suicide Six Ski Area on March 14th-16th

Anyone who's ever been involved in sports, at any level, knows the significance it has on lives -- from shaping our bodies to changing our attitudes.  For decades we've seen how sports transform people.  Special Olympics athletes use sport to develop physical fitness, find acceptance, become confident and aspire to greatness in other aspects of their lives -- enabling athletes to win in sport and in life. 

Your donation of $150 will support one athlete at the 2008 Winter Games.  Give the ultimate gift of self esteem and joy for an individuals with intellectual disabilities.  You will open the door to a world of opportunity and belonging to which individuals with intellectual disabilities haven't always had access. 

It's amazing to think that a straight forward gesture of kindness can have such a profound impact on someone's life, but that is precisely what happens when it comes to donations of time and money to Special Olympics.  We thank you for your support and look forward to seeing you at the games!
