Sarah Shaver talks with Andrew Fee, Executive Director of Special Olympics Three Rivers Region. Fee describes the program and says he’s excited about new programming they’ll soon be delivering to their athletes. He outlines the Young Athletes and Healthy Athletes programs and says their Unified program, people with and without disabilities playing a sport together, is a powerful way to build friendships and change the culture. Fee notes current and emerging sports and said anyone can become a Special Olympics coach. If you like jumping into freezing water, Fee says he has a special date for you in February!
