This Saturday is the San Diego County Regional Special Olympics Track Meet. The event takes place at Point Loma Nazarene University and they are looking for volunteers. See the forwarded email below for more details. If you child (or you or your whole family) would like to help out let me know as soon as you can so that I can let the volunteer coordinator know how many volunteers will be with our group. I have helped with the event in the past and I can tell you that this will be a great experience for anyone who volunteers. It will also be a good opportunity for the High Schoolers to check out PLNU's campus.

Hi Everyone,
 
I just wanted to remind you all that there is an opportunity for the youth (and anyone else interested) to volunteer for the Special Olympics event that will be at Point Loma Nazarene University this Saturday. See below for the details. If your child (and/or will be going please let me know ASAP. I need to let the volunteer coordinators know by tomorrow how many people will be with our group. We will be meeting at PLNU. If your child needs a ride let me know and I will arrange transportation.
