Thank you, Principal Amy Nester, for the use of your gymnasium !

Coach Vickey and her numerous fellow associates will be sharing all sorts of nuggets on social media here in a bit !

One of the 500 or so things running around in coaches during practice is to try and divide ➗️ the teams equally…..two weeks in a row, we ended in a tie 👔.

Fun Day in the Gym !!

With a BIG assist from Mr Ron M, Vickey Ritchie, and our Special Olympics Athletes, had quite the weekend on The Hill !

Vickey Ritchie, to use a sports analogy, leaves it all out on the floor every time she attempts to make everyone feel at home. This weekend, with the assistance from Ron Mack ( abbreviated last name), Coach went Swim, Hoops, and Swim 🏊‍♂️!

Saturday afternoon, the group gathered at the Carroll Wellness Center for a swim party.

HILLSVILLE.

Sunday afternoon, it was back over to Hillsville Elementary School 🏫 for the normal 2pm basketball 🏀 practice. The number of folks in uniform was north of twenty, but Coach was absolutely up to the task of staying on top of all the joy.

Scooby-Doo was the weekly theme, and one highlight was listening 🎶 to Coach singing the shows theme song 🎵.

We were able to acknowledge Patrick Smith and his new role as an officer on the Galax Police force and celebrate multiple birthdays 🎂!

It was fitting that the game ended in a 26-26 👔 and as soon as the group closed out the practice with the ” One Team ” motto, most of the group packed up and headed back to the Wellness center for the bookend Swim 🏊‍♂️ party.

In just over 24 hours,  three times were created and themed in which everyone felt that they were accepted by others ! After all of that effort, Coach still had the energy to sort through hundreds of pics and share them on social media. Still yet, Vickey  then shared a few more with her neighborhood blogger !

Now, it’s 3am on Monday, and while most of the county is sleeping 😴💤, I’m sure in the back of Vickey’s mind, she is planning the next adventure !

I don’t envision a day where my site has a sponsor, but if there was ever going to happen, I would want it to be my man (Beaver) Buc-ee !

We even had a Vickey Ritchie moment inside…

Vickey Ritchie is the queen 👸 of Halloween 🎃!
