About Special Olympics

Special Olympics Unified Sports combine athletes with and without disabilities on the same team.

By participating together, Special Olympics Athletes and Unified Partners improve their physical fitness, sharpen their skills, challenge the competition and encourage teamwork. Athletes will attend competitions when possible.

These activities are FREE thanks to Unified Team and their Polar Plunge fundraising efforts, as well as our wonderful sponsors. Let us know if you would like to be a sponsor!
