Most of you may, or may not know, my friend Rebecca owns the Queens Fitness Adventure Boot Camp.  During her last visit to meet Nathan she shared with me that her company would be participating in this very cool NYC High Trek Adventure to raise money for the Special Olympics!!!  She has also volunteered to be a Coach for this years' competition!  Way to go Becky!! 

As all of you probably know -- our son was born with Down Syndrome and now these organizations hold a very special place in our hearts.  When you are the parent or a loved one of a child with special needs you become extra sensitive to the needs of these children -- the need for joy and accomplishment.  I believe the Special Olympics affords these children that and that's why we are so excited to be sponsoring this race.      

High Trek Adventure is a unique urban adventure game where brains beat brawn! Teams of 2 solve clever clues and face fun challenges all while navigating the urban jungle via foot or on public transit! It's a scavenger hunt, with all the thrills of the Amazing Race, mixed in with Trivial Pursuit, throw in a mini road race and add a dash of cat-and-mouse.

There is no greater reward in life than to see joy on the face of a child and to know you helped put it there.  On behalf of the children that participate in the Special Olympics - our family thanks you!!
