Welcome to Team Sophie

Grace for the 2021

Arizona Buddy Walk!!

***Due to the ongoing concern with Covid, the decision has been made with DS Network to step away from the traditional Walk that is part of the ASU Homecoming parade. Instead, this year they will be renting out the Salt River Field in Scottsdale for an exclusive drive-in movie style event showing Moana. This will occur on Saturday, October 30th 2021. The itenerary is as follows: 4:30pm: Registration opens, 5:30pm: Opening ceremonies, 6:00pm: Movie starts. Bring lawn chairs, blanekts, and anything to be comfortable with. Social distancing will be in place between the different teams/groups.***

Please help us raise funds for this amazing Arizona local non-profit, whose mission is to educate, support, and advocate for those in our community touched by Down Syndrome. This organization really goes above and beyond for the local Down Syndrome community. The money that gets raised from this yearly event is always well spent on events, classes, groups, webinars, etc that educate, socialize, and to just flat out celebrate those who have Down Syndrome in our community, like our amazing Sophie Grace!
