And then there was our church camp director, who managed the camp in the summer while he substituted full time at Yukon Public Schools, as he worked on his college degree. The first year he was hired as a full time, high school science teacher found him sponsoring the Special Olympic team from his school. And it is no wonder that his teachers and community helped surprise him with a Milken National Educator Award!

At another Special Olympics celebrated, I spotted a principal from Ardmore, Oklahoma. I couldn’t believe it.
“Are you here for the 3 days?|”
“Yep! I go where the action is,” he said. And me? I smiled.
It speaks volumes that Bush would not allow his Surgeon General to go to a Special Olympics because the Kennedys' started it - harsh reality. And I am glad that neither of his daugheters were retarded. There are people who say the are professionals, and there are those who really are professionals.
