We are absolutely honored and thankful for the amazing turnout of support for our new Boards, and for the commitment and dedication they have shown and promise to continue to show in support of our wonderful Organization!
Even though we weren’t able to set up the day before due to all the rain, we had all hands-on deck at 5:30 am! Everything was done and ready for our incredible Walk celebrating our individuals with Down syndrome and their extremely dedicated families! We had so many new vendors this year, it was a treat to visit with them and collect goodies and resources!
Our Volunteers showed up this year ready to work and serve in any capacity needed. Our participants were very happy with the entertainment, music and activities. All of it was made possible with the support of our wonderful Sponsors, incredible Team fundraising and your Donations. Every year we tweak things per your suggestions, and every year the Walk gets better and better!
We are thankful the weather held out, we had a lovely breeze and a welcome day of shade. We thank you all for your raffle donations, and your time and energy, all of it benefits our Down syndrome community and allows us to continue our Mission.
We are so thankful for such a generous community and for your continued support! We cannot be successful without you!
Donations will be accepted on our Walk site until December 31, 2024. Please help us reach our goal if possible. All donations big or small, help, and many hands make light work! Thank you for sharing this day with us, and for donating!
