Hamden Woman Volunteers To Rappel Down 34 Floors For Special Olympics!!!
On Friday, September 5th, Sharon Pelkey, Director of Special Events for Special Olympics Inc. in Hamden, has taken on the challenge of rappelling down 34 stories of the Mohegan Sun Casino, all to raise money for Special Olympics.
Sharon told me, "This is my way of showing how much I believe in the mission of Special Olympics Connecticut and my passion for what I do everyday."
Sharon's goal is to raise $3,000. She also told me, "I have faced challenges in my life, but none as big as the ones people with intellectual disabilities face on a daily basis. Help me reach my goal by making a tax deductible donation online.
