Over The Edge – Overlook III Building – Vinings – May 7
Ever wondered if you had what it takes to be fearless and face new challenges head-on? Well, here’s your chance! The fifth annual Over the Edge will be Saturday, May 7! Join other “edgers” who are brave enough to raise $1,000 to rappel over the edge of the 22-story Overlook III Building (2859 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, GA 30339) for Special Olympics Georgia. Over the Edge is the largest fundraising effort benefitting Special Olympics. Last year alone, the event made over $183,000! SOGA is looking for a few good men and women to experience the challenge, the bravery and the exhilaration of participating in an event that takes you out of your comfort zone and ultimately changes your life forever – the same thing our Special Olympics athletes experience every day. If you are interested in participating, becoming a sponsor or would like more information, please contact Kristin Hill at 770-414-9390 ext. 105 or by email: kristin.hill@specialolympicsga.org.
