The Kadena Special Olympics is in need of volunteers for the games on Nov. 8. #KSO2014 Visit SpecialOlympicsKadena to learn more and signup. KSO utilizes more than 2,500 volunteers on game day, supporting nearly 1,000 athletes and 1,500 family members. They are looking for Athlete Buddies, Cheerers and others. What is an Athlete Buddy? An Athlete Buddy is an escort for an athlete and their family. They are an ambassador for the military and will be responsible for escorting their athlete and family to and from events. They will ensure the athlete and family receive lunch. Most importantly they will be assigned an athlete for the ENTIRE activity day and cannot leave them alone under any circumstance. They are the primary cheerleader for their athlete. Minimum age is 15 years old. Athlete Buddies should wear comfortable, conservative clothes. What is a Cheerer? The cheerer is an ambassador for the military. They will be expected to cheer for the athletes at their assigned event. Assignments will be given by the sports reps the morning of the games after registration. The most important part of being a cheerer is enthusiasm! Thumbs up, smiles and high fives go a long way. After the event the cheerer will be free to go or move to any other event they like. The more cheerers at an event the merrier! Volunteers must already have base access to participate for the KSO.
