2007 marked 13 Buddy Walks for the Gold Coast Down Syndrome
Organization. We continue to spread our message of community
awareness as the Buddy Walk grows in supporters each year. The
hugely successful event, attended by over 1500 people, was held
Sunday, October 21, 2007 in John Prince Park, Lake Worth.
This year, along with our One-Mile Advocacy walk we added a 5K
Fitness Walk. More families created teams and made banners
to show their Buddy Walk spirit and a wonderful time was had by
all!

Buddy Walk.
Gold Coast Down Syndrome Organization held its first Buddy Walk, along with 16 others
across the country, in October, 1995 in Haverhill Park as
part of our annual picnic celebrating Down Syndrome Awareness
Month. This past year, there were well over 250 Buddy Walks in
the United States and around the world. Thanks to Deeanne,
Buddy Walk Chairperson, and our wonderful Buddy Walk committee
for a job well done! We raised over $90,000 to support the
projects of our organization. THANK YOU!
