Buddy Walk Information: The Buddy Walk is an event that promotes awareness on Down Syndrome in the community, while raising funds for the local Down Syndrome Association chapter. John and I are still getting information on the Colorado Springs one, however, our friend Aileen is sponsoring a team in the Denver (Mile High) Buddy Walk coming up. You can visit www.mhdsa.org to get additional information. If you are interested in joining or sponsoring the team, the team is "Rachel's Runners". Rachel is Jack's age and has Down Syndrome. If you have a chance to browse the site, about half way down the home page you will see an article called "How My Child Inspires Me; by Aileen Schwarz". This is Rachel's mom and she shares her story. Good luck Aileen! If and when John and I get information on the Springs buddy walk I will share it through an update for you local folks. Thanks! catherine
