SPECIAL OLYMPICS SOUTH DAKOTA OUTSTANDING VOLUNTEERS

Special Olympics

South Dakota

Volunteers do every- thing there is to do in Special Olympics and more. They are fund-raisers, cheerleaders, administra- tors, food handlers, chauf- feurs, chaperones, trainers, coaches, huggers, publi- cists, policy makers, trash collectors, friends, com- rades and supporters of Special Olympics.

They serve without salary, without recognition, without honors or awards. Special Olympics could not do without them - their devotion, their work and their love.

So "thank you" volun- teers! You represent the highest values of the human spirit. You get your thanks, not in money or words or praise, but through what you do for Special Olympics.

For, as the poet E.A. Robinson said, "There are two kinds of gratitude; the sudden kind we feel for what we take and the larger kind we feel for what we give". That larger kind of gratitude is what Special Olympics feels for you!
