Important Notes from Area 26: 
Special Olympics in Northern Virginia is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of persons with intellectual disabilities through sport. We need your financial support to carry out our vital missions of improving the lives of persons with disabilities. The money raised in this tournament will help our athletes and families to keep believing in themselves and become vital contributors to the Northern Virginia community.

On behalf of the athletes and families affiliated with Special Olympics, we invite you to become part of this very special event. We look forward to seeing you out on the course!
