The 2009 AVP Crocs Tour Mason will feature the return of the AVP’s 2008 Men’s Gold Medalist Olympic team, Phil Dalhausser and Todd Rogers. Dalhausser and Rogers will host a very special event for 160 Hamilton County Special Olympics youth athletes during the tournament. Dalhausser and Rogers are providing t-shirts to the athletes and will take part in eating lunch with them, which will be provided by local sponsors Coca-Cola and LaRosa’s pizzeria. Following lunch, the Olympians will deliver a special message to the attendees. “It’s always great to see young athletes taking an active interest in volleyball, and this event gives us the opportunity to interact directly with local aspiring volleyball players,” Gold Medalist Phil Dalhausser said. “We’re in a privileged position to be able to encourage and inspire young athletes to accomplish their goals. The possibilities are truly endless,” Todd Rodgers said. Hamilton County Special Olympics Executive Director Janet Smith said role models like Dalhausser and Rogers make a huge difference in lives of young athletes. “Hamilton County Special Olympics is very excited that Dalhausser and Rogers have invited our athletes to come watch them play during the AVP Pro Beach Volleyball event,” Smith said. “It means so much to our athletes when their athletic role models and Olympians, like Dalhausser and Rogers, invite them to be part of their sporting event.” The Special Olympics event will take place Friday, September 4th at the tournament site.
