2010 Bay Area Buddy Walk
Come walk a mile with us! Over the last fourteen years, the Buddy
WalkTM has
become the premier advocacy event for Down syndrome and has become
a major platform for inclusion in communities across the country.
This year it's at Little Hills Ranch and due
to the generosity of Little Hills Ranch personnel we will have access
to a full day of family fun with exclusive use of this great facility.
Cool activities are included with your registration, like swimming,
rock climbing, playground, air brush tattoos, bounce house, volleyball
and much more.
Most importantly we will walk approximately a mile together to promote acceptance and awareness for all people with Down syndrome.
Special thank you to the Kiwanis Club of Walnut Creek who has volunteered to
do all the BBQ’ng and provide the food for this great event.
Don't miss our concert with Public Eye – A high-energy
rock band, specializing in great music, dance-able rock songs from the 70's thru
today.

For donations and sponsorships, we have partnered with Payjunction, a free service which allows you to make donations with your credit card on their secure website.
Fundraising is easier than ever! it will only take you a few minutes to create a personal web page to email to your friends, family and coworkers. It’s as easy as uploading a photo and writing a personal story. Everyone wants to help, they just need to know how. When you are done, add the link to facebook, linkedin and other social media sites. Please tell everyone you know about the Buddy Walk.
The DSCBA has a goal of $75k this year and you can help us make that happen. All proceeds go directly to our programs which allows us to continue the work we are privileged to do every day for wonderful families throughout the Bay Area. More than 40% of our budget comes from our fundraising efforts as we are not funded by the government so this event really does keep our doors open.
