2026 Step UP for Down syndrome Walk
We are happy to announce that the 18th Annual Inland NW Step UP for Down Syndrome Walk was a great success! More than 500 friends, family, and kids gathered for a joyful day of celebration and empowerment at the Discovery Place Playground in Spokane Valley.
We came together to walk, enjoy the entertainment and activities, share our experiences, and make new friends — all in support of our amazing Down syndrome community. Photos from the Walk are below.
A huge thank you goes to all our participants, sponsors, organizers and volunteers who made the annual Step UP for Down Syndrome Walk an event to remember.
It is because of you that DS Connections NW can continue to support, educate, and connect with those in our community who have been touched by Down syndrome. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you again in 2027!
