The Richmond Chapter of Special Olympics will conduct a track meet on April 17th assisted by Walker’s Physical Education classes from 8:30am-3:00pm on the athletic field.

Training together and playing together are quick paths to friendship and understanding. “Feet Meets” are a way for preschool, elementary, middle and high schools to engage students with and without intellectual disabilities during a training season and culminating “Feet Meet.” Students without disabilities can practice and compete with their team, as well as act as meet facilitators (middle/high school) and fans.
