They can keep the 5 star rating by reinstating me back and lifting my indefinite suspension to Delaware Special Olympics

I absolutely love special Olympics Delaware. My name is Josh Menard Ive been in the special Olympics here in delaware for the past 17 years. When I first started playing it was bowling won 2 gold medals. The main sport i played was basketball for the past 15 years which I wouldnt trade it for anything. I highly recommend and suggest that anyone who has a disability and loves to play sports to join special Olympics.RIPTIDE for life32

This organization once provided a wonderful experience for the disability community and becomes also an important social hub for older individuals. Unfortunately all the millions of dollars raised go to overhead and they spend almost nothing on running the local sports which rely entirely on volunteers who end up having to subsidize events

What many dont understand is that everyone involved here does it out of the greater good of the cause not just for personal fulfillment. Every team member staff coach parent etc. puts their entire work ethic into allowing these beautiful and talented young minds to pursue their dreams and passions. Everyone needs to understand that many people have other things going on in their lives disorganization inefficiency happen. In my opinion get over it You will learn much more from SODE with an open mind. No one is perfect

They are now demanding the covid-19 vaccines for atheletes to be able to participate in sports. What a violation of our rights. We should not be forced to get this against our will just to do a sport. You should be ashamed of yourself demanding this knowing about all the side effects of this jab. This vaccine is not for everyone..

The reason why is that they held me back on running that damn torch and plus that they got rid of me by using size discrimination against me now im oversized and overweight cause of there actions and gunnert dismantled and disrespected the death of a fallen athlete naming Adam j Gibbs and dismantled the Adams Angels social club on all Delaware special olympics sporting events i mean like they also disrespected the death of my parents and treated me like a paper champion to

Pretty upset and frustrated that I had to take my child out of swimming which he enjoyed and is the only sport he participates because he cannot tolerate the exaggerated waiting times for swim meets. Not only do I have to request off work for a swim meet in April and be 6 hours waiting but I have to do it again in May for another swim meet Not to mention waiting these ridiculously long hours with a toddler because there is no one that can watch the child for me. Swim meets Is just timing athletes why round them up all in one space and wait these hours When This is something that can definitely be done in regular practices
