Mascot Consulting has been working with the Special Olympics organization for
the past 8 years. Cosmo attended his first ever basketball tournament in Charlottesville in 1999
and has been a mainstay at the event every year. Cosmo has also been
invited the last five years to the State Basketball Championships at Colonial Forge
High School. Cosmo is now 2-2 in an on-going duel against the Geiko Gecko in the mascot shoot-out/dance-off
and has won the last two contests!
Cosmo has made other Special Olympic events such as the Track and Field Event held
at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, and the Summer Games the past four
years in Richmond, Virginia.
At the Richmond Mascot Camp in 2003, the mascots appeared at the Summer Games
event at the Robins Center. A donation, totalling $525, from the camp fees were
donated to Special Olympics.
