The mission is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other athletes and the community.

Special Olympics is more than sports. It is a movement that recognizes and respects people of all abilities and entrusts that the human spirit and power of teamwork can enhance the way we all live and interact with each other. In Connecticut, more than 13,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities participate. For more information about Special Olympics, visit www.soct.org.

The Fairfield Police Benevolent Association will once again be running its annual holiday toy drive. The toys that are collected are donated to Bridgeport Hospital. The toy drive is usually able to provide the hospital with enough toys to provide ill children admitted there with some smiles not only during the holidays, but throughout the year. This is done by the graciousness of the public and their willingness to give. If people are interested in donating toys they may drop them off at Fairfield Police Headquarters on Reef Road, the Fairfield Recreation Center on Mill Plain Road, or the Town Clerk’s office at Fairfield Town Hall. One other great way to donate while also getting some exercise would be to attend the Fairfield PBA Toy Drive Road Race. The race date is Sunday Dec 16^th, 2012 at 9:30 am at the Scandinavian Club on South Pine Creek Road.
