Special Olympics Kansas 2023-2024.. Hosted by Jeff West AYCC.. Today was a good day, to have a good day! Thank you to the Jeff West MS and HS students that came out on a Saturday in the cold weather to support something they believe in. Thank you to the parents and other volunteers that played large roles filling in the gaps that were very much needed. Thank you Special Olympics Kansas for allowing us to host another great event. Lastly thank you to the Jefferson West High School AYCC students who played leadership roles all day long and modeled for many of our younger JW kids what it looks like to be a leader in the school and community.
