The Buddy Walk of Chester County is a local walk to promote awareness and inclusion of people with Down Syndrome. There are Buddy Walks all over the country.\u00a0 The Chester County Walk was a beautiful celebration of family and community. This was my first year joining Elliot and His Funky Crew and all the other wonderful teams to help raise awareness in our community.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dottiefoley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1627\/2012\/10\/Dottie-Foley-Photography-Buddy-Walk-2012-DFP_6474.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-366\" title=\"Elliot's Funky Bunch 2012\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dottiefoley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1627\/2012\/10\/Dottie-Foley-Photography-Buddy-Walk-2012-DFP_6474.jpg\" width=\"4288\" height=\"2848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dottiefoley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1627\/2012\/10\/Dottie-Foley-Photography-Buddy-Walk-2012-DFP_6474.jpg 4288w, https:\/\/dottiefoley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1627\/2012\/10\/Dottie-Foley-Photography-Buddy-Walk-2012-DFP_6474-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dottiefoley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1627\/2012\/10\/Dottie-Foley-Photography-Buddy-Walk-2012-DFP_6474-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dottiefoley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1627\/2012\/10\/Dottie-Foley-Photography-Buddy-Walk-2012-DFP_6474-451x300.jpg 451w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4288px) 100vw, 4288px\" \/><\/a>Please enjoy this <a title=\"Buddy Walk of Chester County\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dottiefoley.com\/index2.php#\/video\/2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">slideshow from the event<\/a> and follow this <a title=\"Buddy Walk of Chester County \" href=\"http:\/\/dottiefoley.smugmug.com\/Events\/Buddy-Walk-2012-Chester-County\/26039506_QqMqBm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a> to the gallery of images if you are interested in downloading a <strong>free<\/strong> digital copy of any of the images from the walk.
