SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – Special Olympics South Dakota (SOSD) extends its gratitude to Darryl
Nordquist, who has retired from the organization after nearly two decades of dedication to the
empowerment of inclusion. Nordquist’s last day was December 1.
Under his leadership, he elevated the organization by expanding sports and services throughout
the state. He accomplished many initiatives, including fundraising and building the Unify Center
and program offices that SOSD staff occupy today. Through passion, determination and
commitment to what SOSD stands for he leaves a lasting impact on athletes, families,
volunteers and communities across the state.
“We enjoy the fruits of Darryl’s leadership each day and we look forward to the new energy that
Nick brings to Special Olympics South Dakota going forward,” says Monica Burgess, Chair of
SOSD Board of Directors.
We look forward to the future with immense gratitude for Darryl’s leadership and excitement of
what is to come with our new President/CEO, Nick Moen.
