The Bicycle Ambassador for Special Olympics Ohio

Jim "Spud" Sasak of Lakeshore Masonic Lodge #307 is to bicycle to twenty of Ohio’s county seats to promote awareness of Ohio Special Olympics. His first stop was in Tiffin on June 1 and his final will be at the Opening Ceremonies of the Summer Games in Columbus on June 24.

In 2008, Sasak made a pledge that he would bicycle to all 88 Ohio County Seats to raise awareness and funds for Special Olympics. In 2009, during a 1,102 mile ride Spudd visited thirty seven counties around Ohio’s perimeter, and last year, his 802 mile adventure took him to 31 more County Seats. This year’s ride will mark the culmination of his promise.

The Opening Ceremonies of the Ohio Special Olympic Summer Games will be held in the OSU football stadium on June 24. Masons who wish to participate in the Parade of Athletes should arrive at the stadium not later than 5:30 pm. Dress is white shirt and dark slacks.

A professional photographer named Mollie is traveling with Sasak to record his journey.

I saw that guy on his bike on Sandusky Street yesterday afternoon! My first thought was, "Man, I wish I had my camera! I wonder what he's doing!" and my second thought was, "Where's Frank???? He knows everything!" You never let me down!
