From June 14 to June 17, thirteen Elevation youth and three adults travelled to Bloomington, Illinois to volunteer at the Summer Games of the Illinois Special Olympics. We had a blast serving the athletes and bonding with each other. In addition to working at various Special Olympics events, we grew closer as a group, went rock climbing, played at Grady's, worshipped together, and screamed way too much. Oh yeah, and Mac puked ranch dressing and jello out of his nose. All in all, it was an incredible trip!!!For pictures from the trip, check out these Facebook albums:
