On 6/22/2025, West Essex AYLUS volunteered with Essex Special Skaters to help skaters train and practice for the Special Olympics Figure skating program and watch their performance as spectators at Codey Arena in West Orange NJ.
The mission of Special Olympics is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills, and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community.
West Essex members were in charge of the skater’s music programs.
