Special Olympics hosts swim meet at Michener Centre
Special Olympics Alberta held a very competitive event at Red Deer’s Michener Pool on Saturday.
Athletes from Special Olympics clubs across Alberta were invited to the event.
“This event is our annual invitational, and also a qualifier for the provincial swim meet next year in Sherwood Park,” said Connie Biro, meet manager. “We just have a fun time, and we have a supper after for all the athletes where they get a small gift and their ribbons.”
Biro, in her twenty-first year organizing the meet, said more than 130 athletes competed in Red Deer this weekend.
