The Family Resource, Information and Education Network for Down Syndrome (F.R.I.E.N.D.S.) is proud to host the 7^th Annual Buddy Walk to support Down syndrome.  Anyone who wants to support acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome can participate in the Buddy Walk. 

 

The event will begin at the Bandshell in Baker Park in Frederick, Maryland where participants will join in for a one-mile walk around the block.

 

Special guest(s) will be announced at a later date.  There will be music, a clown, The Frederick Keys’ mascot ‘Keyote’, balloons, and more for the kids.  There will also be plenty of free food, drinks, and door prizes for all the participants to enjoy.

The mission of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. is to promote and enhance the quality of life for persons living with Down syndrome and their families.  We open our arms and our hearts to these individuals by providing a wide range of support services; increasing community awareness and acceptance; and acting as a resource of information and education.
