The Walk begins at 12:30 PM

This is what it's all about! Meet your Buddy (person with Down syndrome) or team in front of the stage at 12:30 P.M. for the opening ceremony and one-mile walk.

During the walk, teams will be judged on spirit. So create motivational signs or banners with your Buddy or team name to show off during the walk. A gift certificate to a local ice cream vendor will be awarded to the team or Buddy with the most spirit.
