Description

As we celebrate the 2020 Olympics in 2021, we would also like to celebrate family activities and the outdoors. 

When families register for this event, they will be able to pick a country to represent. They will receive educational materials about their chosen country, and encouraged to wear that country's colors at the event. 

Each country will walk to join a circle during our opening ceremonies where all participants will be announced and celebrated. 

10 modified events will take place, as families make their way through the Family Olympic games. When I say modified - Kayaking will be one event - sitting on a rolling board, "paddling" through cones on the pavement. Or wiffle ball golf. Rapid fire basketball shots, etc.

There will be several age groups for the participants to sign up for. Each age group will have a gold, silver, and bronze medalist. 

We are in need of several volunteers and equipment for the event, including:

Sports equipment, Game equipment, First Aid Station, Ice chests, Water Bottles, Fruit, Granola Bars, Custom T-Shirts, Custom Hats, Custom Swag, Copies of educational materials, Flags representing countries, medals for awards, certificates for awards, possible flowers or gifts for awards, custom bags for families, participant medals, an event photographer, and more!
