ROSS COUNTY LOVES ITS SPECIAL OLYMPICS ATHLETES!

Wow! We are absolutely blown away by your generosity and support. Tonight, our community showed up in a big way, raising more than $15,000 for Ross County Special Olympics!

Every dollar raised goes directly toward providing year-round training, competitions, and opportunities for our incredible athletes. Your support makes a real and lasting impact, and we couldn't be more grateful.

A huge thank you to everyone who purchased tickets, donated, bid in the auction, volunteered, and helped make this event such a tremendous success. We also extend our sincere appreciation to our sponsors for believing in our athletes and investing in their futures.

Thank you, Ross County, for proving once again that our Special Olympics athletes have a community that stands behind them every step of the way. ❤🖤

🏈🌰 A GREAT DAY TO BE A BUCKEYE!🌰🏈

Several of our Ross County Special Olympics athletes had an incredible opportunity today to participate in the Special Skills Football Camp at The Ohio State University!❤️🤍

Our athletes got to step onto the practice fields at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center and experience football the Buckeye way! The Special Skills Football Camp is designed and adapted for athletes with disabilities, giving participants the opportunity to work on football fundamentals like quarterback and receiver skills, tackling, strength and conditioning, and line play. Even better, athletes get the chance to learn alongside members of the Ohio State football program! 🏈💪

Experiences like this are about so much more than football. They are about inclusion, confidence, friendship, trying new things, and giving athletes opportunities to be part of something special.

We are so excited that our athletes were able to represent Ross County today, make some great memories, and spend the day at THE Ohio State University! 🌰

We have a feeling there were plenty of smiles, touchdowns, and O-H-I-O’s happening today! ❤️🏈

Thank you to Special Skills Sports Camps, The Ohio State University Football program, and all of the coaches, players, volunteers, and partners who make this experience possible for athletes with disabilities.

GO BUCKS! O-H! 🌰❤️🤍
