The 11th Annual Rene Jones Memorial

Buddy Walk®

We will have our 11th walk on September 6th in Eldridge Park.  Please visit http://ds.donordrive.com/dsintt to register and learn all about the event.  Please also like our facebook page! 

Also, see dsintt.shutterfly.com to see pictures from our past events. 

We look forward to seeing you again this year at Eldridge Park. We have some new surprises in place, so we hope you'll come on out!

We renamed the Buddy Walk in honor of Rene, who passed away Novemer 2006.  She was one of the founding members of our group and the driving force behind a lot of our advocacy.  Rene did all our public speaking as well as the newsletter and many of the tasks associated with the Buddy Walk. We miss her greatly and honor her memory by renaming the Buddy Walk for her.
