Let me Win! But if I Cannot Win, Let me be Brave in the Attempt

Last week, the annual Special Olympics for Noble County Schools was held at the Shenandoah High School stadium/track.

Athletes from both the Caldwell and Noble Local school districts competed bravely for honors; and everyone had a lot of fun. After the games, lunch was enjoyed by all.

“Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt” is the Special Olympics Oath, and perfectly sums up the excellent sportsmanship found in these special Olympic athletes.
