Last year, I had the honor of being part of many who helped to bring the Special Olympics World Winter Games to Idaho. As a state, we were very fortunate to host such an incredible event. The final fiscal impact of the games was between 35 and 40 million dollars and benefitted our state greatly. Today, the capitol welcomed over 100 young people who were also involved in the Winter Games. It was heartening to see such a large turnout of such wonderful people.
