🚨Best Buddies Nevada Update 🚨

We are making updates to several of our online platforms, including BB360 and our online application systems. This means our school membership applications and registration for our upcoming Leadership Training Day are currently unavailable.

We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience as we work to enhance your experience.

We’ll share an update as soon as our systems are back online. Thank you for your understanding, and we’re excited to kick off another great year with our Best Buddies community across Nevada! 💜

Goodbyes are never easy, especially when we’re saying goodbye to someone who has been such a special part of our Best Buddies Nevada family. 💜

It all started two years ago when Jayme made an appearance as a Desert Dogs Vixen at our Best Buddies Friendship Walk, where she knew she wanted to become part of our mission. Soon after, she and Kyleen were matched as buddies, beginning a friendship filled with so many wonderful memories, laughs, and special moments. 🥰

We are incredibly proud of Jayme as she leaves Las Vegas for an exciting new adventure after making the NBA Cleveland Cavaliers Dance Team! 🏀✨ What an amazing accomplishment!

Jayme, we will miss you and are so grateful for the friendship you have shared with Kyleen and our Best Buddies community. We wish you nothing but the best as you begin this exciting next chapter. Cleveland is lucky to have you, and we’ll be cheering you on from Las Vegas! 💜🏀✨

Once a buddy, always a buddy. 💜 Check out Best Buddies Ohio!
