(SC) April 18 - Special Olympics (Myrtle Beach)
Posted: Mon Apr 23, 2018 11:54 am
Date: April 18, 2018
Location: Ticketreturn.com Field (Pelican's Stadium)
Description of Event (Please share as much info as you can): Horry County Special Olympics
The event was help at Pelican's field in Myrtle Beach. We dressed in an upstairs suit and hit the field awaiting the torch run that ends near home plate. The torch was escorted by a full motorcade and was run in by various Myrtle Beach residents, Police, Fire, and others.
There was a great rendition of the National Anthem and then the games began. As always, the kids and adults were great. We took a lot of pictures and talked to a lot of families. We made the rounds to cheer on the athletes. This was Justin's first official troop and it was an amazing success. Everyone loves Vader...
We wrapped up after everyone had their fill of us and proceeded to grab a group lunch. We had a reporter and photographer with us from South Carolina Living Magazine - we are looking forward to a great article to share what we all do as loyal members of the empire. The magazine is distributed to over 500,000 homes and businesses so if there are people out there who may not be familiar with us they should be soon.
