A Special Message From "Sam’s Sidekicks"

This is our 27th Buddy Walk/Step Up Walk for Down Syndrome! Sam was still in the womb at our first walk in 1996. It was a tiny walk in numbers compared to now. It has come a long way and so has Sam. The little tike that was in the NICU for 3 weeks and hospitalized 5 times before he was 18 months old, now works 2 jobs, takes CLEAR classes at JCCC and is loving his life.
