As we close the books on the 2026 Stevie Kimpel Classic, it appears that we have reached our #1 goal, which is to exceed last year's fundraising totals!

Through the efforts of MANY, the 2026 Stevie Kimpel Classic raised over $8500 in profit, which will be distributed to our 5-County Special Olympics programs! We passed 2025's amount by $1000!

2025 - $7500
2026 - $8500

So proud of our Special Olympics school-age team for finishing Runner-Up at today’s Regional Championships! 🥈

These athletes worked hard all season, pushed through challenges, supported one another, and never gave up. Their determination, teamwork, and heart were on full display today, and we couldn’t be prouder of how they represented our program and community.

Congratulations to our amazing athletes and coaches—this season was something special!
❤️🏀🖤
