The 2009 Special Olympics Festival will be held on Tuesday, December 15, 2009 at The Westin Harbour Castle in downtown Toronto. For the 27th annual Special Olympics Festival, we invite you to come and celebrate with the theme "We Are One."
The Festival is an opportunity to emphasize to our valued guests and supporters that they are part of this remarkable journey to enrich the lives of those with an individual disability and that they have played a significant role in shaping this sports movement over the past 40 years. Together, we are one. We are united in this goal. This “unity of purpose” makes us stronger and explains our remarkable successes.
Special Olympics Canada will be highlighted in celebrating the 2010 Special Olympics National Summer Games, the same years as the Vancouver 2010 Games. This presents the entire Canadian athletic movement with a tremendous opportunity to show a unity of purpose and the shared ideals and goals of all high performance athletes. In this concept, we emphasize what experiences unite athletes: training, competition, representing a country, the sheer joy of victory and defeat.

The Special Olympics Festival has always been an occasion to share moving stories of determination, commitment and accomplishment. The 2009 Special Olympics Festival will continue this tradition. Join us as we celebrate the accomplishments of Special Olympics athletes across Canada. Each story underscores not only the tremendous role of this sports organization in the lives of athletes, but also the value of an ardent community of supporters who have embraced the movement.
