October is Down Syndrome Awareness month, so what better time than this to celebrate! 

Down Syndrome Family Connection is pleased to present the 14th Annual Buddy Walk in Bloomington on Sunday, Oct. 3rd at the Monroe County Fair Grounds!

We are making plans for a safe and enjoyable in-person event at the Monroe County Fairgrounds and will also offer a virtual option for those who aren't comfortable attending in person.

The walk is actually a vehicle parade this year, but should still be lots of fun, and will happen rain or shine.

Many volunteers are needed to support this event during the Oct. 2 setup and on the Oct 3 event day.

Opportunities include being a parking attendant, an errand runner, a team leader, wandering entertainment, and set up and tear down.

The annual Buddy Walk® in Bloomington is more than a walk, it's a family reunion. Whether you have Down syndrome, know someone who does, or just want to show your support – we invite you to join us for a great event as we unite for a common cause and raise funds to support Down Syndrome Family Connection.
