Down Syndrome Walk in the Southern Tier

It's a great cause and your shoes walking in the right direction will help many area families. I invite you to the 2012 Down Syndrome Buddy Walk Sunday, September 16th at beautiful Ostinango Park, Bevier Street, Binghamton. Registration starts at 11:30am with opening ceremonies at 12 Noon. Registration is only $5.00 plus a non-perishable donation will help out another great group in our area, CHOW. For that $5.00 registration fee, you get a nice looking T-shirt and food.  There will be games, face painting, caricature artists Bon Fed and Russ The Big Guy!  Check out the interactive booths, Carle School of Irish Dance, Talking Hands, Will Stafford-juggler extraordinaire, balloons by A Balloon Affair and some great music by "Cast Of Thousands."  Oh yeah, and MCing will be done by the incredible Rich Birdsall from the Hawk!  Thanks guys for helping out!

For more information or to volunteer your time, please contact Kathy Devine at the Down Syndrome Information Network STNY office:  (607) 761-0655.  It sounds like it's going to be a good weekend to walk!
