Our Team
Our all-volunteer organization relies on a dedicated, multi-generational team to plan, promote and manage the annual Senior Olympics games here in Doña Ana County. The Board of Directors includes 10-12 individuals who meet monthly to ensure high-quality programming and financial sustainability for the organization. Eighteen to 20 local athletes who are experts in their sport volunteer to manage our roster of competitive events each year.
