Due to the hot weather predicted, for the safety and comfort of attendees, we are moving up the Buddy Walk schedule to be 1 hour earlier. We encourage attendees to arrice by 9am for our activities, including our karaoke performances anf fashion show, which will now be before the walk. 

The walk will be a shorter route at 10am, followed by time to enjoy all of the activities, including food and drink for purchase, our NEW East Side Shenanigans Artwork Silent Auction, raffles, crown and slap bracelet decorating, face painting, cookie decorating, yard games, and art and exhibitor tables.

Raffles and Silent Auction will end at 11am.

We appreciate your understanding and hope you will arrive early to celebrate all individuals with developmental disabilities.

For the second time in Community Link Buddy Walk history, the t-shirt design includes artwork by a talented Community Link participant. This year, participants could choose to submit artwork, and all staff and participants voted on which artwork best represented the walk. Erik S, at Breese East, was our grand winner!

All shirts will be available for pick up at AVH through Friday, September 18th at 12:00pm. Any shirts not picked up before then can be picked up at the park on the morning of the walk.
