Bocci

T started playing
Bocci with the Special Olympics. She is now officially a member of the Golden Spikers and the team competes in various sports throughout the year. (Bocci is a type of lawn bowling that reminds me of Curling) I think there are about 70 people on the team. Not everybody participates in every sport, it is their choice. At the two practices T has been at, there has been about 25 people there. She seems to enjoy it but was real disappointed that there are no pins to knock down. Good Luck Golden Spikers! They have tournament in Aug. with all of Northern Utah teams and if they take gold, they will compete at the U of U in Oct. with teams from all over Utah. It should be a great experience for her. I am excited for her to make some new friends.

we LOVE Bocci ball! One of our favorite things to do when my side of the family gets together. We also like to play it for FHE quite often. Lots of fun. Good luck, T!!
