Approximately 25 students from the Swain County School System competed in the Special Olympics hosted by Jackson County on Friday, May 5. Athletes competed in various events and had a wonderful day of friendly competition, fun and socialization. Each student athlete was paired with a staff member that accompanied them throughout the day and everyone walked away a winner. Thank you to Deep Creek Baptist Church for providing water for everyone and Refuge Church for the snacks. Everyone left with smiles and memories that will last a lifetime.
