A message from our County Coordinator
Our volunteers are the foundation of SOSC and the results of their dedication and efforts can be seen in the smiles of our athletes. Words cannot express the gratitude and appreciation I have for all who are a part of SOSC. I encourage you to become a part of our mission, whether you are a family member, volunteer, or athlete, you can contribute to our community of champions! I challenge you to consider what you can do help - no matter how big or small - your efforts will make a difference in the lives of many! - Marie El-khoury, County Coordinator

Spread the WORD to end the WORD
It is time to “Spread the Word to End the Word”. Help others stop and think about their use of the R-word. That R-word is not “recession,” but something more hurtful and painful – “retard.”
Spread the Word to End the Word will continue to raise the consciousness of society about the dehumanizing and hurtful effects of the R-word and encourage people to pledge to stop using it.
Visit: www.R-word.org to make your pledge today!
