Bud E. Bee Boo!RunProviding greater meaning and purpose to the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
COI is a sister company to Community Living Concepts, Inc (CLC) which provides residential and other living options for many of the individuals served at COI.
Our mascot, Bud E. Bee is a symbol to those we serve. To look at the bee you think how can such a thing fly. It's wings are too small for it's body. Well, no one seems to have told the bee he couldn't fly; he just does. Our philosophy is the same for the people we serve...we don't set limits...we let them FLY!
The Bud E. Bee BooRun was developed to help promote awareness of our organization and provide funds to support the many activities and programs we provide to the people we serve, such as trips to participate in Special Olympics, supported employment, computer training, and so much more.
Our BooRun will occur on SATURDAY OCTOBER 30, 2010 at Hulen Park
900 Hillsboro St in Cleburne, TX 76033
