Denver Nuggets and Kroenke Sports Charities participate in Special Olympics Youth Sports Day

On July 12, the Denver Nuggets and Kroenke Sports participated in Special Olympics Youth Sports Day, presented by Cardel Homes. The activities took place at John Derry Park in Englewood, CO and provided children with plenty of sports to play and enjoy.

Overall, there were 170 Special Olympics Colorado Young Athletes (ages 2-12 years) that participated in the event. There were five stations set-up to let kids play soccer, lacrosse, hockey, dance (which was led by the Denver Nuggets Dancers) and basketball (which was led by former Nuggets player Ervin Johnson, who is currently a community ambassador for the Nuggets).
