Happy Plunge Week! We are "beary" excited to be launching into our 24th Annual Polar Bear Plunge! Who's planning on braving the cold with us this weekend?

@ the 50% of our poll voters who won't be at Plunge:

Happy Monday! For this Volunteer Appreciation Week, we're really getting down to the numbers 😎

#ThrowbackTuesday Learn the story of long time volunteer Teri Burtis. Special Olympics Maryland wouldn't be able to do what we do without our volunteers. Thank you for all that you do! somd.org/uncategorized/… #VolunteerWeek

"They’re a part of me. They’ve become my closest friends." Volunteering with Special Olympics Maryland is a unique experience, you build friendships that last a lifetime. Find out what it means to be a SOMD volunteer: somd.org/uncategorized/…

Getting this Saturday started right! Tweeting live from the #SOMDsummit2021! Getting some housekeeping out of the way before we dive on in!

"I think the power of Special Olympics, and the power of what we're doing in schools, is going to change the world." Powerful words from our CEO Jim Schmutz! Students, never doubt the change you can create! #SOMDSummit2021

What does being Unified mean to you? 📣 Sound off! #SOMDSummit2021

"Being part of the team," "valuing diversity," "making sure everyone included," just some ways in which our students see being Unified! #SOMDSummit2021

How does living unified affect our actions? "Making a conscious decision to participate, not just saying we're being inclusive but doing it!" #SOMDSummit2021

Just finished our first break! Who's ready to get back into action? #SOMDSummit2021

Some Public Speaking tips from our man Adam Hays! Remember to use inflection, look at your audience, and leave them with something! All great tips to help you succeed when you lead! 😎 #SOMDsummit2021

Being kind and welcoming in the hallway! How do you smile with a mask and have people still know you're smiling at them? Smizing! #SOMDSummit2021

How can YOU make someone feel included in the classroom? "Don't be afraid to start a group conversation!" "Continuing the conversation in and out of the classroom!" "Have positive body language!" "Small hi's can go a long way!" #SOMDsummit2021

Leaving the summit on a high note! We're looking forward to seeing how these students take their tips and ideas from today and implement them in their school! Let's get out there and build a more unified world, starting in the classroom and on the field! #SOMDSummit2021😁🤩
