Let's continue to ride the wave...
On a slightly overcast, chilly Saturday in September 2024, 1,500 - 2,000 friends, sponsors, and exhibitors Stepped Up for Down Syndrome for one powerful day of celebration and advocacy for the Down syndrome community. Thank you, thank you for your support!
We can't wait to see you in 2025!
