The 8th Annual Bowie County Special Olympics Benefit is set for Saturday, January 31 at noon in the Texarkana Elks Lodge located at 3702 New Boston Road. This annual benefit is co-sponsored by Texarkana Dart Association and Texarkana Elks Lodge #2771. You’re invited to join the families and friends of Bowie County Special Olympics as they celebrate eight years of fun with a silent auction, dart tournament, lunch, and some very special athletes. Entertainment includes a special performance by the Krystal Bell Ringers from New Boston Life Skills Class under the direction of Mrs. Diana Melton.

Your participation in the Special Olympics will add tremendous value to the community and assist in providing for our deserving athletes with intellectual disabilities. All proceeds directly benefit more than 350 Special Olympic Athletes of Bowie County as well as Cass County, Fouke, Ark., and Texarkana, Ark.

Admission is a $5 donation and children get in for free. The Dart Tournament entry fee is $5 and prizes will be awarded for all skill levels and beginners are welcome.
