Trail de Paris/Sports Pavilion at Love Civic Center
Paris, Texas

The Buddy Walk is a one-mile walk on the beautiful Trail de Paris beginning at the Love Civic Center entrance on South Collegiate Drive in Paris, Texas.  The Red River Valley Down Syndrome Society hosts this annual awareness and fundraising event which helps to bring the community together and fund general operation costs of the organization.

What Can You Expect at the 7th Annual Red River Valley Buddy Walk?

Great things!  Lots of fun, time to visit, games to play!  The annual event is more than a walk - it's a festival!  A family event, kids can have fun winning prizes at the variety of carnival games, enjoying the inflatable activities and so much more!  The event begins with festivities and ends with the one-mile walk on the trail. 

Buddy Walk Volunteers Needed!

Interested in serving on the Buddy Walk Committee or just volunteering on the day of the walk?  Contact Tiffany Phillips, Buddy Walk Chair by email or by registering online! 

Why Walk With Us?

The Buddy Walk was established by the National Down Syndrome Society in 2995 to celebrate Down syndrome Awareness Month in October.  The Buddy Walk is meant to promote acceptance and inclusion of  people with Down syndrome.  The Red River Valley Down Syndrome Society utilizes the annual event to raise funds locally to fund its many programs and servies available to its members.
