“The SNGCSA is thrilled that we are able to financially support these athletes who have shown an interest in the game of golf,” said SNGCSA board member Troy Flanagan of Anthem Country Club. “Several of our members volunteer with Special Olympics Nevada and the stories they share about their work with the athletes is truly inspiring. The SNGCSA is proud that our gift will make a difference in helping to best serve the children and adults who benefit from these terrific programs.”
Special Olympics Nevada is entirely dependent upon local support and does not charge participation fees for any athletes in its programs.
“We have been cultivating community-oriented special events, corporate partnerships and grants to continue funding programs while we struggle to serve an ever-growing athlete base,” said Maggie Schwarz, regional vice president of Special Olympics Nevada. “We are growing at a rate of one new athlete every two days and the donation from SNGCSA will help us fund our golf program which has shown renewed interest over the past several years. We truly appreciate SNGCSA’s financial support and their members who have volunteered countless hours of time with our athletes.”

It’s great to see the Southern Nevada Golf Course Superintendents Association supporting such an important cause.

It made sharing these positive efforts much more impactful.
That’s an incredible initiative! The $2,000 donation from the Southern Nevada Golf Course Superintendents Association will go a long way in supporting Special Olympics Nevada’s golf program and championship events. It’s heartwarming to see community members not only offering financial support but also volunteering their time to inspire athletes.
