About

Welcome to Special Olympics Pennsylvania, Lawrence County (SOLC)! As an accredited local program of Special Olympics Pennsylvania (SOPA), SOLC offers year-round sports training and competition to children and adults with mental retardation.

Throughout Lawrence County, nearly 100 Special Olympics athletes participate in nine sports, from Aquatics to Golf. Athletes compete in some 20 local and 10 state-level events, and have the opportunity to compete in international games every two years.

Training takes place at sites throughout Lawrence County, including Westminster College, Sand Rock Driving Range and Colonial Bowling Lanes.

The entire SOLC program is run by volunteer effort. All funding to support training and competition comes from the generous residents, companies, and foundations of Lawrence County, and all monies donated to SOLC stay within the county.

Countless county residents volunteer their time coaching teams, officiating games, organizing events, raising funds, and playing numerous other roles. New volunteers are always welcome.
