Congratulations to Karen R., a long time LIFE participant who is a member of the Hyannis community and is celebrating her 50th year as a Special Olympics  athlete! Over the years, Karen has participated in Special Olympics basketball, soccer, track and bowling teams. 

She has always demonstrated an amazing determination and pride in her participating every year and performing well. Karen is big on smiles and hugs, but she wants to win and do well, displaying her own well-honed streak of competitiveness. 

Ian has teased her for years about her possibly retiring from Special Olympics, and that LIFE would hold a press conference to announce her retirement. She would always respond with a big smile and say, No press conference this year. Her way of telling us she was never retiring - and she hasnt!

Lets give Karen a congratulations in the comments for all her accomplishments over the past 5️⃣0️⃣ years. 🎉
