At the bottom of this e-mail is a "Manage Your Preferences" link: here you can select your unique
interest, update your information and choose exactly which kinds of communications you would like to receive from us. And, you can always add new
communications to your list or opt-out of those you no longer wish to receive. What's more, you can opt-out of a particular communication from us
without removing yourself from any other lists - you receive only what you want.
Want to share information about Special Olympics Oklahoma with friends? Use the "send this to a

Why is that? Because, if you were to simply forward this e-mail, there is the potential for some of
the formatting to be lost or if they select "opt-out" they will really be opting you out - and we don't want that!
