Naval Academy Special Olympics - Track and Field

We are all very excited to co-host the 46th Annual Anne Arundel County Special Olympics Spring Games at the US Naval Academy. The Annapolis Jaycees (Junior Chamber of Commerce) would not be able to put this event on without your help. This year we will be hosting the Special Olympics qualifier for a record number of athletes, 425!

If you are a Jaycee and have a Jaycee t-shirt please wear it. If you need to contact me during the day I can be reached at 410-921-0048
