    In a great way to bring the Olympic ideals to people who have extra obstacles to overcome in competing, the special olympics has brought real hope to people with intelectual disabilities and their families. Volunteers make a huge contribution to making this a reality.

    Ireland Games, Limerick 2010 information sessions.
    "The mission of Special Olympics Ireland is "to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with an intellectual disability, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendships with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community."

    If you have volunteered before and could share your experiences on this thread that would be very helpful. Thanks.
