Special Olympics Missouri was founded in 1971. What began as a track meet with a few hundred athletes has grown to serve more than 15,000 athletes with more than 150 competitions annually. We rely solely on donations from generous individuals and businesses to provide world-class experiences for our athletes. Please be a fan by supporting this special event.
