Buddy Walk

The Buddy Walk is a national program that promotes understanding and acceptance of people with Down syndrome. The Down Syndrome Association of Central Oklahoma will have their annual Buddy Walk on Saturday, October 19th at the Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City. This is the main fundraiser for DSACO, and we are so excited to participate in it this year!

The Buddy Walk begins at 9:00am. Activities will include raffles, moon bounces, petting zoo, games, music, and much more! At noon, all attendees will walk one lap around the block outside the Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark to show their support for acceptance and inclusion for people with Down syndrome. If you would like to join our team, click HERE.

In addition to the Buddy Walk, there will be a Run for T21 5k beginning at 8:00am. Registration is $30. Each participant receives a Run for T21 t-shirt, and all finishers will get a medal. Runners and walkers of all ages are encouraged to participate. Click HERE To register for the 5k.

Several months ago, a good friend designed shirts for my marathon relay team. We are using the same shirt design for our Buddy Walk team. If you'd like to order one, please comment below or email me. I need shirt orders by Sunday, September 29th. The shirt is moisture wicking and 100% polyester. $12.50/each.
