This fun and inspiring event welcomes athletes of all ages and abilities to participate in track and field events such as running and wheelchair dashes, basketball throws, relay races, and ladderball. Every event is modified so that all who attempt to participate will be successful. 

Athletes will receive a medal for their achievement and lunch will be provided after the Olympics.  Over 150 athletes have participated in previous years.
