why couldn't you use a strobe light? one that doesnt flash rapidly like that of a disco strob anyway. use one that flashes on and off at every second. that could be another way to signal the deaf and hoh.
Hi, John! Regional games include athletes and teams from certain parts of the state--for example, the northeast or the south. State games include participants from across the entire state. I hope that helps!
I'm a special Olympics athlete who's competed in 3 sports at a provential c level one of the high functioning disability division in all 3 sports all 3 of those sports I got atleast a silver if not gold in each of the sports I'm very high functioning and I can compete in normal sports against able body athletes we just often compete in special Olympics against people of around the same level I normally stick to special Olympics but I do sometimes compete in regular sports leagues I remember 4 years ago I won the city's poutine eating competition and people were so impressed even more so when they found out I was special Olympics athlete wining against a bunch of able bodied people and yes competitive eating is used as a competitive sport probably because in that world there some incredible eaters I stuck to video games and I'm also a pro gamer because I'm also insanely good at video games and I've already got a few word records and won a couple tournament's I used to do ju jisu at the MMA place and I won a couple of times by submission I like to exspirament with all things rather compete in special Olympics or regular league sports and I also live all by myself people think that no special Olympic athlete can ever do what regular people can do that's just ignorant people and the stupid stigma talking yes it's very hard but really hard for all just got to do our very best try hard and not stop using disability as an exscuse do anything set our minds to it
Being able with your friends and family and being able to participate in the sports and learning disability that can change the way that people feel about themselves
