This event was held many times throughout the year in order to give retarded children a chance to compete with one another in athletic events'fThe special Olympics was an experience l'll never forget, stated Maria Avila, a faithful member. Aside from club meetings, jinx doll and poster workshops, and helping the community in general, the club had some major projects. ln May, members had a com- munity picnic with all the citizen advocates.
