Registration and festivities begin at 8:00 a.m., with the walk scheduled to start at 9:30 a.m. Participants may still register online at http://www.dsafnebraska.org/buddywalk.php?action=user

In 2007, nearly 1,000 participants walked in the Capital City Buddy Walk in over 51 buddy teams to promote positive awareness and education regarding Down Syndrome.

The Buddy Walk was developed by the National Down Syndrome Society in 1995 to bring together a wide range of concerned individuals to reach out to friends, family and co-workers to promote awareness and inclusion for people with Down Syndrome and to raise funds for education, research and advocacy programs. The walk has grown from 17 walks in 1995 to more than 275 nationwide (one in every state) with over 250,000 participants.
