That's what the Special Olympics are all about. The Special Olympics for our region were held on April 30 at Oaks Field in South Charleston. Many students from the Charleston area participated in the Special Olympics including 15 Hoover students. All of these students were on hand at the Olympics from 8:30 to 2:30 p.m. to participate in various athletics such as the 50 meter dash, the standing broad jump, the high jump, the frisbee throw and the softball throw. Hoover students participating in the Special Olympics were: Keith Wilmoth, Sharon Rhodes, Denise Olive, Nora Shaffer, Gary Hodges, Robert Blackwell, Greg Swiney, Lela Stricklen, Clinton Mul- lins, Tim Murdock, James Johnson, Rodney Patton, Charles Newhouse, Billy Weikle, and Jeff Shafer. Six Hoover participants were awarded gold medals for their achieve- ments. They were Lela Stricklen, softball throw, Robert Blackwell, long jump, Billy Weikleg 50 meter dash, Charles Newhouseg frisbee throw, Keith Wilmoth, frisbee throw and Rodney Patton, softball throw.
