Kevin has been a volunteer with Special Olympics Calgary since 2016. In the winter months, he's an assistant coach for curling, and in the spring and summer he's the co-head coach for the novice softball team.
A lifelong golfer, Kevin founded the Sunrise to Sunset challenge in 2018 and raised over $7,000 for Special Olympics Calgary. He golfed 101 holes in Cold Lake, Alberta, where he learned to golf. In 2021, he was thrilled to surpass his 2018 numbers, walking 108 holes and raising $16,000! In 2022, he was joined by some friends, and together they raised $23,000 Calgary Special Olympics Athletes.
When he's not golfing (or waiting for winter to end so he can golf), Kevin spends his time working for a power company in environmental commodities, reading on a wide variety of topics and spending time with his wife and dog.

The Leibel/Lough line combination has extended outside of hockey to golf and the occasional trail run. He's participating not only to support his friend Kevin but to also raise awareness and funds for a great cause in the Special Olympics.
Scott has golfed since he was a little junior at Country Hills Golf Club and fits in golf whenever he can in between spending time with his wife and family, coaching baseball and chasing around his three boys.

Back for his third Sunrise to Sunset Challenge, Kade is a Calgary-born sports enthusiast who has played team and individual sports since he can remember.
He picked up golf when he was 13 and started playing competitively at 16, eventually competing with Mount Royal University’s golf team. Sports have always, and will continue to be an important aspect of my his life; they continue to teach him many valuable life lessons and help him through challenges like stress and anxiety.
Kade firmly believes these lessons and support are not unique to him, and everyone should have access to play sports in a team environment. When he met Kevin a few years ago, he shared his efforts to raise funds for Special Olympics Calgary and Kade immediately asked him how to get involved. Helping athletes of all abilities experience the joyous moments and support from sports in a team environment is definitely something Kade wants to be a part of.
Special Olympics Calgary is dedicated to enriching the lives of Albertans with an intellectual disability through sport. Their vision is that sport will open hearts and minds towards people with intellectual disabilities and create inclusive communities all across Alberta.
Special Olympics Calgary provides 33 different programs and 21 sports year-round to over 1600 participants with an intellectual disability ages 2 and up. Their high-quality programs foster many skills and qualities that enrich athletes' daily lives. Our athletes foster self-esteem, establish new friendships, and realize their full athletic potential in a safe and supported environment.
A unique feature is they focus on the athlete's ability, not their disability. They are about giving each child, youth and adult the same opportunity as their peers in other sporting and community events. Their athletes practice with individuals of their own level of ability. In addition, they keep the cost of participating affordable, and no individual is turned away due to financial difficulty.
