2027 Scarf Project
Each year hats and scarves are given to athletes from Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa and Nebraska, who participate in the John L. Cassidy Winter Games. We ask volunteers to crochet or knit these items for the athletes. Each year we post the colors for the upcoming games.
For the 2027 Winter Games, the colors are any shade of yellow/gold and blue. Our goal is 200 scarves and hats. Scarf guidelines: 50-60 inches including fringe 6-7 inches wide any design or pattern using both colors
Packing: Please wash before packing into a Ziploc bag. Drop off or send completed items to: Special Olympics Kansas attn: Jill Meyer 5280 Foxridge Drive Mission, KS 66202
