Buddy WalkSaturday, September 27, 2014
University of Northern Iowa Mark Messersmith Track and Field Complex Kick off Down Syndrome Awareness Month by joining us for the Buddy Walk. Help raise awareness of the abilities of individuals with Down syndrome and support the work of Designer Genes Down Syndrome Group and the National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS) by enjoying a day of walking with new and old friends. This year's walk will kick off with the UNI Sparkles cheerleading squad and includes a silent auction that includes tickets to Walt Disney World. The police department will also be on hand to help create IDs for children. Individuals with Down syndrome get in free and receive a free t-shirt. $5 per person or $20 for families of 5 or more (immediate family only). Persons who raise $50 or more receive a free Buddy Walk event T-shirt. Click here to download a printable fundraising form. Click here to download a printable Buddy Walk flyer to share.
