The 20th Annual Special Olympics sponsored by The Woodlands Kiwanis was held on March 24, 2007. To say the least, it was a "winning" event for all participants and volunteers.

Volunteers are the lifeline of the Special Olympics program. More than 300 local volunteers and more than 500,000 individuals worldwide currently dedicate their time to Special Olympics. These volunteers serve as coaches, officials, committee members, competition assistants, speech coaches and much more. Whether they participate for one day or for years, volunteers make a difference in the lives of Special Olympics athletes and in their communities.

The Woodlands Kiwanis is a registered 501(c)(3), non-profit organization supported by private donations from individuals, corporations and organizations throughout the community. The Special Olympics—Field and Track Event is "our most exciting contribution to the disabled community."
