EVENT CALENDAR
Through Special Olympics Minnesota (SOMN) programming, more than 8,200 people with intellectual disabilities showcase their skills to their peers, their communities, and the world. In braving their attempts, they gain new experiences and become confident and empowered by their accomplishments. As a result, they create lifelong bonds with fellow athletes, volunteers, and people in their communities.
​
SOMN welcomes people of all ages both with and without intellectual disabilities. Whether traditional athlete, Unified Partner, or Young Athlete, SOMN creates an accepting and inclusive environment for everyone!
​
In addition to our athletic activities, Special Olympics Minnesota has a number of social events each year for athletes, families and coaches to enjoy.
