Special Olympics Personal Appearance REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES; RUE: Ms. Gena Scott -Loveless, County Coordinator of the Miami Mega -City Special Olympics, has requested a personal appearance before the City Commission on July 24th. The Special Olympics has been occupying approximately 5000 sq. fL of office space for several years under an agmemeut with the Orange Bowl Committee_ The Orange Bowl Committee arranged to share their office space with Special Olympics without involving the City of Miami in their agreement In 1995, the former City Manager sent a letter to the Special Olympics offering the use of the office space, at no charge, for the year 1996. Over the past eight months, the administration has had ongoing negotiations with Major League Soccer (MLS) for the use of the Orange Bowl Stadium for a terra of ten years. The revenue potential for the City of Miami is estimated to be $10 million. As we seemed to be finalizing negotiations with MLS, I notified M-A Scott -Loveless of the need for the Special Olympics to relocate their offices. In an effort to assist the Special Olympics and to minimize the inconvenience, we offered the use of the Manuel Artime Community Center. Ms. Scott Lovelass has inspected the offices and declined the offer. In May, I notified Ms. Scott -Loveless that MLS had requested the use of the office space for the term of their Use Agreement. lu June, as we seemed to be finalizing the agreement with MLS, we notified Ms. Scott -Loveless that they would need to relocate their operation in four weeks. On May 6, 1997, Ms. Scott-Lovelass corresponded with MLS to solicit their support. MLS has expressed a willingness to work with the Special Olympics, however, they require the use of the entire office space and declined to share it with them. Please advise if you require additional information. 97- 509 3 41, SPECIAL OtYMP1CS e International Founded In 1968 by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, Special Olympics is an International program of year-round sports training and competition for children and adults with mental retardation. MIAMI "MEGA -CITY" SPECIAL OLYMPICS PROGRAM FACT SHEET Millions of children and adults with mental retardation live in the major cities of the world. Polarization of people by ethnicity, economic status, and education in the cities is creating a dramatic impact on the world - economically, socially, and politically. Amid this urban experience, Special Olympics International is working to ensure that persons with mental retardation will not be overlooked or neglected. Special Olympics is an international program of year-round sports training and competition for children and adults with mental retardation. Although Special Olympics has grown tremendously over the past 28 years, serving' millions of athletes worldwide, Special Olympics International has recognized that the opportunity to participate in Special Olympics has been limited for a large segment of the population living in the major urban communities of the United States and around the world. In 1989, the Special Olympics Mega -Cities program was conceived. Its goal is to increase sports opportunities for people with mental retardation living in densely populated metropolitan areas through the direct involvement and participation of the families and the political, business, church, school, and civic leaders of these communities. As a result, the Miami "Mega -City" Special Olympics program was established in 1991. The following facts highlight significant strides toward achieving mega -city goals. • Registered over 3,000 mentally retarded participants • Recruited and trained over 250 volunteer coaches • Offered training and competition in 17 different •sports (athletics, bocce, cycling, equestrian, horseshoes, roller skating, soccer, tennis, volleyball, aquatics, golf, softball, basketball, bowling, gymnastics, powerlifting and Unified sailing.) Skill levels include a wide spectrum of abilities ranging from MATP, individual skills, team sports, Unified and masters ages 8 years old through adulthood. • Trained and transported athletes to compete in sectional tournaments and state games for Indoor, Spring and Summer seasons • Conducted Area Games for Dade and Monroe Counties for Indoor, Spring and Summer Games • Ten athletes competed in the 1995 Summer World Games winning medals in golf, Unified sailing, roller skating, gymnastics and powerlifting. • Conducted successful Unified Basketball and Bowling Leagues in cooperation with Dade County Public Schools • Developed a cooperative working relationship with the Ladies Professional Golf Association, WTA, the USTA and the Lipton Tennis Classic to provide support and training of athletes • Conducted numerous events designed to increase opportunities for socialization such as the Lipton Tennis Clinic, Miami Heat half-time show, Hoop -It -Up, Sports Celebrity Festival, Olympic Soccer • First Special Olympics athlete to serve on Board of Directors for Florida Special Olympics • Registered over 3,500 volunteers all over Dade County to form the backbone of the Miami "Mega -City" Special Olympics. Their contributions are as varied as their backgrounds. They are called coaches, chaperones, administrators, foodhandlers, fund-raisers, buddies, publicists, policy makers and trash collectors. Above all, they are people who care, people who give and people who love. Special Olympics volunteers love enough to give of themselves in order that mentally retarded children and adults of Dade County have the opportunity to come together, participate in �_t athletic events, and feel special. gi ii 4„t aft �h , record, In; W i-Nkv !
