WOW. What a night. 💙✨
Somehow, it has already been two weeks since Gems & Jeans 2026. We’ve reclaimed our workspace, packed away the auction supplies, caught our breath, and finally had a chance to take in what an incredible evening it was.
To every sponsor, donor, volunteer, performer, vendor, community partner, family member, participant, and guest who helped make Gems & Jeans possible: thank you.
This event is about so much more than a beautiful evening together. It is about building belonging, creating opportunities, and continuing to grow a community where people with disabilities are welcomed, supported, celebrated, and given space to thrive.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who showed up, gave generously, shared their time and talents, worked behind the scenes, and believed in the work of Specialized Needs Recreation.
And we’re not quite done reminiscing yet. 📸 We have more photos, stories, special moments, and thank-yous from Gems & Jeans to share in the coming days.
For now, from all of us at SNR:
Thank you for making Gems & Jeans 2026 a night to remember. 💎👖
