DELAWARE COUNTY SPECIAL OLYMPICS

The Delaware Cows began a very special relationship during the summer of 2006 with the Delaware County Special Olympians.

The Special Olympians were guests of the Cows at a weekend game in which the team held a raffle for the benefit of our new friends.  Donated prizes ranged from a cash prize of $100 to other items like concert tickets to Germain Amphitheatre, autograhped die-cast models of Jeg's race cars, Mookie's Moolah and coupons for pizzas.

Later in the season, the Cows and the Delaware County Special Olympians got together again for a friendly softball game and picnic.  To a man, the Cows found the experience invigorating and the coaching staff claimed it to be a contributing factor in the Delaware Cows stretch of 10 wins in their final 11 games at the end of the season.
