Special Olympics Arizona
MCC hosts the Special Olympics Arizona Summer Games with our Service volunteers playing a critical role in the success of the games. In 2010 we logged over 700 hours at the 3 day event. Special Olympics provides year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for all children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community. See the Special Olympics Retrospective here.
