Hi guys!!

Special Olympics will be having their annual Spread the Word to End the Word campaign tomorrow, March 26th at the LBC Messine (2nd floor) from 2-4pm. A special Olympics athlete will be giving her testimony at around 2:30 pm and we would love a huge turnout. There will be tons of free swag throughout the event(hats, t-shirts, mugs, bags, etc.) So stop by at any time between 2-4 and sign the pledge to eliminate the R-word from your vocabulary. Hope to see you there!

Be sure to vote tomorrow!
