The PAC Penguins take part in a variety of sporting events. Staff, families and community friends support the athletes by providing coaching for both practice and competitions such as bowling, swimming and track events.

Our Special Olympics Coordinator is Sue Gaspar.  If you have any questions or would like more information, please CLICK HERE to send her an email.
