The Buddy Walk is a one-mile walk in which anyone can participate. Hundreds of thousands of people walk from coast to coast and around the world every year. The goal of the Buddy Walk is three-fold: to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome; to raise the funds necessary to develop innovate and effective programs; and enhance the position of the Down syndrome community.
Even if you have no connection to the Down syndrome community, join in! There will be mascots, bouncy castles, aerialists, bubblers, a resource fair, a live band, and much more.
Admission is free.
T-shirts will be available at the event for a $15 donation. The t-shirts are free for people with Down syndrome, while they last.
