Still riding the high from this past weekend’s North Region Bocce, Softball & Young Athletes Competition!

A HUGE thank you to the incredible volunteers from Midlothian and the surrounding communities who gave their time and energy to make this event such a success. These competitions wouldn’t be possible without the people who show up to lend a hand, and make our athletes feel supported every step of the way!

Thank you to another one of our local sponsors, the Midlothian Rotary Club, who helped make these opportunities possible for our incredible athletes.

Weekends like this remind us that when a community comes together, amazing things happen!💙

Longtime Special Olympics Texas volunteer Missy Patterson passed away on September 22 after a 10-year battle with cancer. Missy started with SOTX as a volunteer area director in the early 1978. Over the last 48 years, Missy served as a competition volunteer, competition director, area SMT member, competition GMT member, confidant and friend for many SOTX employees, and a remarkable advocate for Special Olympics Texas, our athletes, and their families. We will miss her dearly and send our prayers to all of her family and friends.

Services for Missy will be held on Friday, October 2 at 10:30am at First United Methodist Church in Rockwall.
