Teams come in all sizes, but most importantly, a team comes together to show support for people with Down syndrome. Most teams create a fun team name to honor their special buddy with Down syndrome. Teams walk together at SUDS, sit together at the Walk in the Park, and cheer on their buddy! Creating a team is a simple two-step process that will make your team "official." Offciial teams will get email reminders, announcements, and exclusive information about the event, your team name will be announced at Step Up for Down Syndrome, event check-in will be streamlined, and, most importantly, fundraising totals will be counted toward our fundraising contest for the Walk in the Park.
2012 Step Up for Down Syndrome Team Registration
1) Request a team packet by filling out the form below. Your official team packet will be mailed to you free of charge and contains all of the information that you need to know about Step Up for Down Syndrome, having a SUDS team, and preparation for the Walk in the Park. The team packet also offers details about some changes made for Step Up for Down Syndrome & Walk in the Park this year.
2) Create a team page at www.firstgiving.com. Firstgiving allows you to create a personalized online fundraising page for your team where friends and family can go to make online donations and you can manually enter offline contributions. By having a Firstgiving page, you are helping the DSAGSL office streamline team donations and keep updated and accurate fundraising records and team totals.
PLEASE NOTE: If a team does not complete BOTH team registration steps, that team's donations will not be counted in the fundraising contest!
