Beta Xi Chapter

Beta Xi at-Large is excited to support the Healthy Athletes Initiative during the Special Olympics Delaware 2026 Summer Games, taking place on June 12–13, 2026, at the University of Delaware Sports Complex. As Healthy Athletes volunteers, members will help promote athlete health and wellness by distributing sunscreen, sharing sun safety information, and assisting athletes throughout the Healthy Athlete Village by encouraging and escorting them to the various screening tents and wellness stations available during the Games. Interested volunteers can sign up using the following link: Beta Xi at the Special Olympics Summer Games If you plan to attend, please email Joanne Thomas at jcreasy@udel.edu. This is a wonderful opportunity to serve our community, support Special Olympics athletes, and make a meaningful impact through volunteer service!
