Basketball is a favorite activity for many St. Louis Center residents, some of whom have played on Special Olympics teams for years.
To share the mission of St. Louis Center with young people in the community, Fitness Specialist Caitlin Blomquist invited the Chelsea High School boys and girls basketball teams to visit the Center on December 15th. Residents who were able participated in warm-up drills and a friendly game with the students in the gym.
Team members also spent time with residents who did not take part in the game, making Christmas decorations and coloring together. These shared moments reflected the heart of our mission—recognizing individual abilities, fostering inclusion, and building meaningful connections. Everyone had a great time!
