Join Our Team for the 22nd Annual Gold Coast Down Syndrome Organization’s Buddy Walk

Buddy Walk 2015

The entire school, family, and friends are invited to join our team for the 22nd Annual Buddy Walk. This is a very worthwhile event as it is to raise funds for Gold Coast Down Syndrome Organization.  Our team is called “Buddies STEP UP” and you can participate in the walk or make a donation on the team’s behalf.  There will be a t-shirt for purchase for $15.

Our very own Special Arts Ensemble will again open the Walk with their performance of a medley from the musical Hairspray.  The Dancer’s Edge Company will be walking in support of our Special Arts and Dance Movement students.  

This is the Dancer’s Edge Company’s 3rd Season for raising funds and walking for the Buddy Walk.  We hope you will consider donating in addition to purchasing the t-shirt and walking.  Any amount will help and is wonderful. 

As you may know, Southern Dance Theatre has offered a class for special needs students since our inception in 1983.  Our Special Arts Ensemble has performed for this event for over 12 years now.  In 2014, we put a team of walkers together, along with The Dancer’s Edge Company, to get them involved in a charity that was community based and impacted dancers, at their home studio, as well.  Our hope is that parents, families, and friends will join our team in making this a great SDT event!

Registration before October 3rd is $15.00/ $20.00 after.  Students are $10.
