Special Olympics: The Frankie Lemmon March

Today, we joined our friends from schools all over the county in the opening ceremony of the Special Olympics Wake County spring games, hosted by Raleigh's Ravenscroft School. It was North Youth Days for elementary school ages – and it was chilly! We went primarily to learn, to watch, and to march...




It was also a time of seeing old friends again...

...and sharing lunch in the food court. Middle School students had decorated lunch bags, and Ravenscroft alumni, parents, faculty members, and alumni had helped supply food for the special Chili's Fundraiser lunch.












The Special Olympics can be defined in one word: LOVE.
