| Rio Grande Valley Down Syndrome Association |
WELCOME! Thank You for visiting our event page! This year we have partnered with The Rio Grande Valley Down Syndrome Association ( RGV ). With their help we will be making this years walk a paid registration walk its definetly a big change but one that will be less stressful for our family and everyone who has helped raise funds for all of our previous walks. Registration will be $15 a person and will include a Funky Sock Walk T-shirt. You will now have the option of creating your own team or joining an existing team. Team Captains ( individuals with Down Syndrome ) will be free as this is their day and they are our special guest. Through the RGV we will also be able to accept tax deductible donations so businesses are encouraged and welcomed to help in any way they can. Aside from paying for our walk we also have other events planned this year such as creating our 2020 Down Syndrome Awareness calendar and a Down Syndrome Holiday Party. We have also chosen a great organization Special Hearts in the Arts ( specialheartsinthearts.com ) to give a special donation which will be presented at our Walk. All vending and sponsor questions can be directed to theupbrothers@gmail.com. As always the Funky Sock Walk is just a fun short walk to spread Down Syndrome awareness through the community. We encourage all teams to create their own signs, banners, etc. to carry during the team showcase and the walk. We look forward to seeing your team there! | GETTING TO THE GOAL OF $5000
