Friday June 26th! Our SO Powerlifters will be lifting at Newfoundland & Labrador Powerlifting Association Provincials! Come on our and cheer on our lifters :)

We are proud to share MHA Helen Conway Ottenheimer’s recognition of Law Enforcement Torch Run Week in the House of Assembly for the Harbour Main District.

Since 1989, the Law Enforcement Torch Run has been a powerful example of community partnership with Special Olympics across our province. The commitment shown by law enforcement goes well beyond their daily duties, reflecting a long-standing dedication to inclusion, respect, and opportunity for people with intellectual disabilities.

Thank you to all members of law enforcement who continue to support Special Olympics through this meaningful initiative.
