A Legacy of Service Across Generations
When I was a junior at LMU, I joined the Special Games program. I’m not sure who got more out of it, me or my athletes. Today, I’m so proud that my son serves on the board of Special Games, just as I did. It’s so exciting to hear his joy and enthusiasm when he serves the Special Games community.
Recently, I looked back at photos from my LMU days and saw pictures of me with my athlete, then noticed that same athlete featured on LMU’s social media page, still competing more than 30 years later! The fact that these athletes continue to participate, and that LMU students uphold this meaningful tradition year after year is both impactful and heartwarming.
