The Florence Parks & Recreation Department was honored to host the 2025 Special Olympics today, welcoming around 500 incredible young athletes to the Sportsplex for a day full of competition, courage, and joy.
Athletes participated in a variety of events, including 10-meter, 25-meter, 50-meter, 100-meter, and 200-meter wheelchair, walking, and running races, as well as softball throws, shot put, tennis ball throws, and long jump. The energy and determination on display were absolutely inspiring!
To the amazing team of Sportsplex employees, thank you. Hosting an event of this magnitude takes dedication and heart, and you showed both in every detail.
To the spectators, thank you for cheering and supporting these athletes.
To every volunteer, thank you for your time and service.
And to every athlete who competed today, we were truly blessed by your energy and spirit.
Thank you to Mayor Ron Tyler, Council Member Thomas Spence, and Alisa Dickson for joining in support.
What an unforgettable day for our community!
