Sports Friendship Day is an event designed for individuals with special needs, intellectual disabilities, or physical limitations ages 7 to adult. When each participant arrives, they will be paired up with a college-student-buddy that will assist them throughout the day and ensure that they get around to all of the fun activities planned. Some of these activities include: light sports activities, arts and crafts, karaoke, face painting, and more! Following these activities, will be mass and a dinner provided for all participants and their families.
This event will be limited to the first 120 reservations, so sign up fast before our spots fill up! There will be a waiting list for additional reservations in case of cancellations, so if you are unable to come after you have registered, please contact us and cancel your registration so that others can be accommodated.
Sports Friendship Day is made possible due to the generosity of the entire Saint Vincent College community, especially our students and the Student Government Association (SGA) who help to fund this event.
Good Sports, Good Friends, Good Times!
