The Area 22 Special Olympics Spring Games began 15 years ago at Lenoir City Elementary School, but moved to the middle school when the track was built.

Last year, the Spring Games shifted over to Sweetwater, but returned to Loudon County this year.
The Spring Games are organized each year by Mary Mills.
