Hello family and friends! 
We are once again asking for your support to help raise funds and awareness for Down syndrome. 
The reason we walk is for this guy here...Tyler! He is such a very important part of our lives and we would like to give back after receiving such blessings and opportunities for him.  Raising a child with special needs comes with it's challenges. You can't help but fall in love with Tyler and all that he is!  He is 7 now and going into 1st grade!  He has an infectious smile, cutest giggles and such a kind heart.  And yes he can be stubborn!
This is our only fundraiser of the year to raise enough to support local families, like ours, who have a loved one with Down syndrome.  We promote inclusion and acceptance for all.  The outreach grows every year as new families join our circle.
The money raised help provide grants, scholarships, summer speech programming, various speakers and educators for parents/ caregivers/teachers, social events, parent networking and support, care packages and also classroom kits to local schools.  All of these resources are so essential! Tyler has been able to access many of these opportunities. Otherwise we would not be able to provide for him due to high cost. 
Please consider joining us by either walking with us or making a monetary donation. An added BONUS if our team raises the most money we have a chance to get Tyler on the billboard promoting the walk for next year!
Thank you for your time in reading this and supporting us!  We really do appreciate the love and support we receive from you all. 
 Together we CAN make a difference!

Lots of love, Tyler, Walker, Ron and Erin Countney
