A Saturday at Lake Eola: Step Up for Down Syndrome on October 10
Events
A community event can be a welcome change from appointments and paperwork. Central Florida’s Step Up for Down Syndrome Walk is coming to Lake Eola Park on Saturday, October 10, with a morning built around people with Down syndrome and their families.
The Down Syndrome Association of Central Florida hosts the walk as its largest annual fundraiser. It supports the organization’s programs and family resources throughout the year.

Plan around the person going
Before making the day’s plan, ask what would make it enjoyable: meeting people, a short walk, or time together outside. Check with the organizer about the route, accessible parking, restrooms and places to take a break if those details matter to your family.
You don’t have to turn a Saturday outing into an endurance test. Plan transportation, bring what you need and leave room to head home when it’s time.
