Jaren’s Best of All!

Jaren has been attending local Special Olympics Young Athletes programming virtually since January 18th and this is what Jaren’s mom shared about his Best of All…

Jaren has been working through the obstacle course like a champ, crawling through the tunnel, stepping over the crossbars and through the hula hoop.  He has even started to do some of this unprompted.  We are so proud of the progress he has made through his participation in Young Athletes!

Way to go Jaren!
