Special Olympics Cocktail Soiree

Help Raise Funds and Awareness for New York's Special Olympic Athletes

The Special Olympics New York Junior Advisory Committee will host its 1st annual cocktail soiree to benefit Special Olympics programs in New York City. Enjoy an evening of hot music by DJ KISS, a Christiania Vodka open bar, gift bags, and fantastic conversation—not your average charity event. Learn about how you can make a difference in the lives of children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The proceeds from the evening will go to providing medical screenings for these athletes before their next competition.

Launched in 2007, the Special Olympics New York Junior Advisory Committee was established to spread awareness, raise revenue, recruit volunteers and build the next generation of leaders to help guide the work of Special Olympics New York.

Date: May 13, 2008

Location: Socialista; 505 West Street New York, NY

Time: 7:00 - 10:00 PM.

Ticket Price: $75 in advance, $100 at the door.
