Stay tuned for more info! 6 ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT: LIZ STRONG Many Special Olympics athletes get started at an early age, but that’s not the case for this year’s Athlete of the Year, as she wasn’t born with a disability. Instead, she was the victim of a horrendous crime when she was shot in the head by a fellow teenager. He was incarcerated for a few months while she fought for her life in a coma, and when she woke up, she was sightless and paralyzed on the left side. She was so glad to be alive that, for her own peace of mind, she felt she had to forgiver the shooter. She says that’s “how she got even” - and that positive attitude has served her well in the years since. When she recovered and returned to high school, she joined the local Special olympics program, where she participated in track & field and bowling until graduation. After taking a few years off and focusing on work, she rejoined the program in 2010 and though she continues to work 10-hours shifts three-days a week, she has regularly competed in track & field, bowling, bocce, corn toss, and swimming. Fundraising is an important activity for her, as she has participated in the Butler University Polar Plunge for the past three (3) years. She appreciates the help from the safety team that assists the athletes up and down the pool ladders at the plunge, but she and a fellow athlete were inspired this past year (2020) to make a change and to take the lead in replacing those difficult ladders with steps. The result was a safer, better, and more enjoyable experience for everyone. Her leadership efforts don’t end there, as she is currently studying communications in Athlete Leadership University. Her ultimate goal is to become a global messenger and to use her experiences , he incredible sense of humor, and her enduring optimism to go out and promote Special Olympics locally, nationally, and hopefully at the international level. She is an inspiration to everyone who knows here, and it is truly an honor to present the 2020 Michael Furnish Athlete of the Year Award to LIZ STRONG, from WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP and AREA 8. 7 CALENDAR OF EVENTS Dates subject to change based on changes in facility availability.

    Building the Future of Esports Betting & Entertainment

    Building The Future of Esports Betting & Entertainment Nasdaq: GMBL Esports Entertainment Group (GMBL) is a Nasdaq-listed company Building the Future of Esports Betting and Entertainment. 3 What is esports? • Esports is organized competitive video gaming that is watched as a spectator event. Esports were already the fastest growing subsector of digital entertainment, and Covid-19 has only accelerated this trend. • The Esports audience is very valuable for advertisers because it is young, digital native and affluent. Research has found that esports fans are more likely to be influenced by their favorite team being sponsored by a brand than traditional sports fans are. • Despite the vast amount of eyeballs, Esports remain dramatically under-monetized relative to traditional sports. We believe wagering will play a major role in helping monetization in the space catch up. GAMING ASCENDANCY: MORE PEOPLE ARE PLAYING MORE There are 2.5B gamers globally (with some estimates as high as 3.5B). 2 out of 3 Americans are gamers. Video gaming is now more engaging than any other social media outlet (FB, Snapchat, IG) with gamers spending 51 minutes on average playing every day. Gaming industry is now bigger than movies or music Sources: Newzoo - 2019 Global Esports Market Report 5 ESPORTS DOMINANCE Esports tournaments have now outstripped all traditional sports events both in terms of viewership and prize pool. In 2019 the League of Legends championship drew a larger audience than the Super Bowl. And the winner of the Fortnite World Cup won more money than Tiger Woods at the Masters.
