The 2025 Red Flannel Festival Queen and Court had the honor of attending the Southwest Regional Spring Special Olympics, where determination, joy, and true sportsmanship were on full display.

From the opening moments to the final events, these incredible athletes reminded us what it means to compete with heart, courage, and unwavering spirit. It was a privilege for our Queen and Court to cheer them on, celebrate their achievements, and be part of such an inspiring day.

“Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt.”

Yesterday was a powerful reminder that bravery, effort, and community matter far more than any medal. ❤️
