Walk for Natalie

Update: To keep Google from being confused, we are removing references to last years fundraiser and team name.  Please view the 2012 blog entry (http://bit.ly/Mis8tF) and the 2012 team page (http://bit.ly/MirYSZ)

We just decided to start a ‘team’ for the 2011 [fundraiser] in Freedom Park, albeit a little late in the game. Lots of people came up with cute names so I had to go with the alliteration route too.  We decided to go with Natalie's [N---].  We are still new at figuring things out but thought this would be a great way to meet some other families and help raise a little money for Down’s Syndrome.  If you are in Charlotte and would like to walk with us, we’d be glad to have you on our team.  The walk is October 1st in Freedom Park.  There will be kid-friendly events starting at 2.  The walk starts at 4:30 and there is a hot dog supper at 5:30. 
From the [fundraiser] website:  ‘The goal of the Buddy Walk is to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome. Your support will help all people and families living with Down syndrome to enjoy a more successful future.’  More information on the walk can be found HERE.

Thanks for all the love and support we have received with Natalie.  Though we have a long way to go, I can definitely say things are so much brighter today than 8 months ago.
