Saturday was full of fun, smiles and a competition to raise money for Special Olympics at Kelowna City Park.
Motionball held its 10th annual Sports Marathon on Saturday, with participants playing in a variety of games throughout the day. All teams played flag football, ultimate frisbee, kickball, road hockey, kineball, and ping pong.
The nonprofit’s goal is to introduce and inspire the next generation of volunteers and donors to the Special Olympics movement.
In addition to the sports being played, participants will pledge to end the use of derogatory language in everyday conversations and take a stand against bullying. Motionball uses and sells merchandise printed with “#nogoodway,” meaning there is no good way to use those words.
At Saturday’s event, Motionball’s goal is to raise $150,000 for the Special Olympics Canada Foundation. This year, they expect to reach more than $1 million raised.
