Thank you to the Kentucky Department of Agriculture and Commissionser Jonathan Shell for inviting us to be a part of yesterday's Sunshine Class in the livestock show ring at the Kentucky State Fair. The Class gave individuals with disabilities - including many of our athletes - the opportunity to show livestock with the help of some incredible youth mentors. It was a great afternoon and we're looking forward to being involved again next year!

We had an amazing day working with our 2024 Athlete Leadership Class. We spent time working on meet-and-greet skills, speech writing and team building. And we were really excited to be joined by our friends Doreen Langley and Rhodes Bratcher from our Athlete Leadership Presenting Sponsor Pinnacle Financial Partners. We appreciate your support of these amazing athletes!

Special Olympics Kentucky President and CEO Trish Mazzoni has announced her retirement, effective December 31, 2024. She has dutifully served as the organization’s President and CEO since 2012, but in total, her Special Olympics Kentucky career spans 38 years. After volunteering at Special Olympics events as a student at the University of Kentucky, Mazzoni was hired as the program’s Sports Director in 1986. Following her successful management of sports programming for several years, she was promoted to Executive Vice President, where in addition to continuing to direct sports and health programs, she ran the organization’s day-to-day operations before her eventual elevation to President and CEO. To address the transition in leadership which will take place at year’s end, SOKY has engaged a third-party nonprofit consulting and search firm to assist the board of directors in their appointment of a new President and CEO.
