2009 Times Square Video Call For Photos

A message from the National Down Syndrome Society in New York:


Celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the Buddy Walk® by entering the Times Square Video Contest (in New York). The video, which showcases individuals with Down syndrome from all over the world, will air on a jumbo screen in the heart of Times Square on September 26, 2009 at 10:30 a.m. The New York City Buddy Walk will immediately follow the video presentation at the Great Hill in Central Park.

Each year, the National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS) receives thousands of photo submissions for the Times Square Video Contest. Because the Buddy Walk promotes acceptance and inclusion of individuals with Down syndrome, the winning photographs feature children, teens and adults with Down syndrome working, playing and learning with friends and family.

For more information, or to submit a photo, please click here.


The deadline for submitting photos is July 15, 2009.
ONE photo per individual can be submitted to the contest. Please note that this is different than in the past. If you send more than one photo, NDSS will only use the first submission.


Winners will be contacted by a representative from NDSS via email starting the week of August 3, 2009. You will not be contacted if your photo is not selected. Photographs will not be returned.

For further questions about the contest, contact Rebecca Switalski, National Buddy Walk Director, NDSS at timessquarevideo@ndss.org


Wouldn't it be great to see someone from Australia included?
