Special Olympics-HPA Facility helps make dreams come true

Healthplex managed facilities make dreams come true at the Special Olympics! Singing River Healthplex member Gregory Means recently participated in the Special Olympics in Seattle Washington. Means won two gold medals; one in the backstroke, one in the freestyle, and a silver medal for the participation relay.

Means began training with Healthplex swim instructor Jim Bourque two months prior to participating in the Olympic games. They focused on improving his swim stroke as well as his kick to help assist in his overall speed. His work ethic and drive to be and do better definitely paid off. We are proud of him and all that he has accomplished.
