Winston-Salem's Omar Narvaez breaks the bat at the point of impact late in the
matchup against the Wilmington Blue Rocks of Wilmington, Delaware, at BB&T
Ballpark in downtown, Winston-Salem on Wednesday, June 10. The Blue Rocks
would prove to be too much of an offensive threat as they would easily cruise to
the finish line over the Winston-Salem Dash by a final score of 11-5.

'Superhero Spectacular' weekend
SPECIAL TO THE
CHRONICLE
Special Olympics
Forsyth County is partner
ing with the Gateway

"Superhero Spectacular"
weekend on Friday and
Saturday, June 26-27, that
will include races and a

these events is $15, $40 and

Every 5K and 10K reg
istration will provide a one
year membership to the
Gateway YWCA, said Lisa
Kiser, the local coordinator
for Special Olympics
Forsyth County. "We're
urging everyone to come
dressed as their favorite
superhero and 'fly' through
our one mile, 5K or 10K
races."
Kiser adopted the
superhero theme for the
weekend because, "We are
all heroes to someone. The
athletes of Special
Olympics Forsyth County
are heroes to me every day
in some way. I want to
make sure that they are
encouraged to be strong
and brave to overcome the
day-to-day battles they
face. Heroes also come
from our coaches and vol
unteers. They empower our
athletes to be their best."
To register for the race,
visit CityofWS.org and
search for "Special
Olympics." To sponsor an
athlete for a one-year
membership without regis
tering for the race, contact
Kiser at 727-2425 or
lisak@cityofws.org.
Special Olympics
Forsyth County provides
year-round sports training
and athletic competitions in
a variety of Olympic-type
sports for children and
adults with intellectual dis
abilities, giving them con
tinuing opportunities to
develop physical fitness,
demonstrate courage, expe
rience joy, and share
friendships.

pete in Special Olympics,
local programs are respon
sible for covering the cost.
