Special Events

Special Olympics Tennessee offers a variety of special events throughout the year where individuals and companies have the chance to contribute to our organization in the most non-traditional ways.

Whether it’s teeing off and celebrity spotting at the Don Ellis Gatlin Celebrity Golf Tournament in April or enjoying tea and cookies at the American Girl Fashion Show® in October there’s something for everyone!
 

We invite you to participate in our 2010 events!



The Polar Plunge is an excellent opportunity for individuals, organizations and businesses to support Special Olympics Tennessee.  Participants raise financial support from friends, family members, neighbors and co-workers as they “plunge” into icy waters in Tennessee. Prizes, costumes, food & fun are all a part of this fabulous event. Plunges are scheduled throughout the state in the months of January and February.  Click here for more information.
