2020 Down Syndrome Virtual 5K and Inclusion Parade

Register for 2020 Down Syndrome Virtual 5K and Inclusion Parade

Thank you for registering for the 2020 Down Syndrome Virtual 5K and Inclusion Parade!

Due to the rising cases and concern around the coronavirus (COVID-19), DSACO has made the decision to host the annual Down Syndrome 5K virtually on September 26, which includes a car parade, “The Parade of Inclusion.” This decision was not taken lightly, but the priority of DSACO is always the safety of families, loved ones with Down syndrome, 5K runners, volunteers, and to those who help put on the event.
 Our 5K runners ALWAYS run for a PURPOSE; that purpose is awareness, inclusion and acceptance for people with Down syndrome! This year, we will run ALL OVER the globe for a PURPOSE! To further our mission and to raise awareness for Down sydndrome, we ask that you wear your 5K shirt, which will be delivered to your doorstep between 10-14 days after you register to run. You will be sent a "profile" of a person with Down syndrome whom you can run in honor of! You will login to this site after your run and you will log your time for your finisher's certificate! Your run can be logged from the moment you register until Sept. 26th, 2020. 
The Inlusion Parade will be a parade of cars DECORATED to represent the person you are raising awareness for, OR in blue and yellow to celebrate Down sydnrome! SO GRAB YOUR CAR POLISH, put your creativity to the test, and let's see who has the most spirited vehicle! We will have volunteers lining the streets in Downtown OKC to cheer us on as we parade through the city to raise awareness for Down syndrome!

Your participation in the virutal 5K and the Inclusion Parade will help DSACO to “raise awareness and provide resources, as well as promote acceptance and inclusion for people with Down syndrome.” So, get your team members signed up, grab your team t-shirts and let’s get started!  We are so grateful for your support and look forward to celebrating with you safely on Saturday, Sept. 26, for the Down Syndrome Festival and 5K!
 
Sincerely,
