                SW FL PODS Angels; STEP UP 4 DOWN SYNDROME walk is a wheel-friendly 1-mile pledge walk to increase public awareness and acceptance, and raise funds to support programs and services for people in our community with Down syndrome.  Whether you have Down syndrome, know someone who does or just want to show your support, come and join the Walk. Anyone can be a buddy! This is what it's all about! Meet your Buddy (person with Down syndrome) or team in front of the pavilion at 9:40 am for the opening ceremony, then walk.  

                During the walk, teams will be judged on spirit. So create motivational signs or banners with your Buddy or team name to show off during the walk. Spirit judges will be located in the park around the track to select the winning teams or Buddies. Return to the pavilion at 12:00 pm for the presentation of the 2010 Spirit Award winners.
