Step 1 has had a pretty descent sized Special Needs team the last few years. And they always try to have some sort of "dance" or party for them at the end of each season. Well this year was no exception and the theme was a masquerade prom. It gives the kids a chance to have a night to be glamorous and let loose with kids just like themselves. The coaches and helpers turn off the main lights and set up twinkly lights like you'd see at every other prom. They also set up snacks. There's a photo section where the kids can get their prom pictures taken, even a "couple's photo". Just had to brag a bit because I find it to be incredible the things that go on in the gym. I hope this gives some inspiration to any other gym who has a special needs team. I know this time we get lost in the "large senior debate" or the drama of Worlds, it's just nice to acknowledge the good things that come out of our sport.
