Special Olympics
Featured Athlete
Nathan Wright, a thirteen year old West Covina Special Olympics athlete has been participating in the
program for three years. The involvement in Special Olympics all began three years ago when Nathan
was at home watching the 2012 London Olympics. He told his mom, Kimberly, that he wanted to do
what the athletes in London were doing. Kimberly then began to research the Special Olympics and
came across the local chapter. Nathan began training for track and field at the local level and took
home a 1st place medal in the 50 meter run and a 2nd place medal in the softball throw. Last year he
competed in bowling as an individual and with a team. His
team placed 4th and he placed first in the individual category. Currently, Nathan is training in track and field again where
he is competing in the 50 meter, 100 meter, 400 meter relay,
and shot put.
Nathan’s experience and involvement in Special
Olympics has brought a boost to his self-confidence and the
opportunity for him to meet new people and build friendships.
One day his dream is to be an ocean paleontologist, and with
the drive and passion he has great things are in his future.
Special Olympics Host Town
West Covina Chosen as Host Town for 2015 Special Olympics
As a Host Town, West Covina will provide visiting Special Olympics athletes with the opportunity to
learn about and experience American culture, as well as share their own culture with the community.
West Covina residents, civic groups, and businesses plan to roll out the red carpet for the visiting
athletes, with community rallies, a summer concert in the park, old-fashioned American cuisine, and
diverse activities to showcase West Covina as part of
the melting pot of Southern California.
CWC
“The Host Town program is an exciting way for
Southern California locals to open our doors and
show the athletes and coaches from around the
world our hospitality and our culture,” said Patrick
McClenahan, President and Chief Executive Officer
of LA2015, the Games Organizing Committee. “This
is an important part of the World Games experience
and a truly meaningful way for different communities
to be part of the Games and create lasting memories
for our visiting athletes.”
This is sure to be a memorable experience for West
Covina. Be sure to visit the City’s website on upcoming

City of West Covina Honored as ‘Playful City USA’
The City of West Covina was recently honored as a KaBOOM! Playful
City for 2013. West Covina is one of 37 cities nationwide to receive this
recognition for the first time.
Sponsored by the Humana Foundation, Playful City USA is a national
program from KaBOOM!, a nonprofit organization based in Washington,
D.C., that celebrates and promotes local policies that increase play
opportunities for children across the United States. The Playful City USA
program was established in 2007 to help local governments address the
lack of play in communities across the United States and to recognize those
communities that are making a commitment to play and physical activity by
developing unique local action plans to increase the quantity and quality of play in their community.
West Covina projects that received recognition included the new playgrounds at Palmview and Del
Norte parks, as well as the new splash pad and dog park at Del Norte Park. In addition, West Covina
was recognized for the many partnerships with local nonprofit organizations and businesses in an
attempt to maintain previous levels of community services programming and recreation opportunities
in the City.
