2018 also marks the 50th Anniversary of Special Olympics. Eunice Kennedy Shriver's vision for young people with intellectual disabilities began in her own backyard, with the goal to learn what these children could do in sports and other activities and not dwell on what they could not do. Throughout the 1960s, Shriver continued her pioneering work and watched her vision and drive for justice grow into the Special Olympics movement. In July 1968, the first International Summer Games was in Chicago, Il., USA, where, five decades later, the world will come together to honor Eunice Kennedy Shriver and her vision as Special Olympics celebrates 50 years of inclusion and unified play.
“Summer Games is open to the public and a free community event. When we come together we send a clear message of inclusion and respect for all people,” said Dixon Pignanelli. “We invite the public to be a part of the 2018 Summer Games by cheering on the athletes at competitions or celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Special Olympics at the Block Party.
A media kit for the 2018 Summer Games will be available at the volunteer registration table at all venues. High resolution photos are available upon request.
