Today I attended the Special Olympics competition in Houston. This was truly a memorable experience and I can't wait to do it again. The athletes were talented, enthusiastic and very supportive of each other. Their joy was contagious as medals were handed out for their hard work in track and field events. There were so many dedicated volunteers who worked hard to organize a fun event for the athletes with not only sports but an athlete village with dancing, karaoke, awards, food and more. This program is so important and I was overwhelmed by how many volunteers came out to support the event, including many queens and Lone Star Princesses. The only bad thing was that my sister was not feeling well and could not join me. A huge thank you to Duc Nguyen for allowing me to be a part of it!
