High 5!

Post date: Feb 07, 2014 1:47:46 AM

Special Olympics athletes are invited to sign up for an exciting program that Special Olympics has had in place for a little while but is continuing to promote: the High 5 program. This allows Special Olympics Ontario staff to search for athletes who are keen to do events such as speaking engagements, award presentations, photo opportunities, etc. in communities across the province. Benefits of joining include:

• Attend events (i.e. Marathon of Sport, Motionball, Store Openings, conferences, Photo opportunities, cheque presentations, speaking engagements)

• Athletes will receive an e-card on their birthday.

• Athletes receive quarterly newsletters, featuring an "athlete in the spotlight" article

• Athletes are encouraged to share their story and information about their involvement with Special Olympics

• More important - athletes are asked to help promote the High 5 Club to other athletes.

It's an easy online registration that you can complete by visiting this link http://high5.specialolympicsontario.com/default.asp and clicking on "register now."
