Step Up! Parramatta: 25th October 2015
The sun is shining, spring is here and it’s time to get together and get moving!
It’s that time of year again – StepUP! So get your walking shoes out and register online NOW.
This year we’re doing things differently – StepUP! is moving to Parramatta Park!
The ‘walk’ - instead of one long continuous circuit, this year the walk will instead have a few fun activities along the way.
Kids (and any ‘big kids’ who want one too!) will be given a ‘Walk Passport’. They then collect stamps for their passport at designated stations along the route. A prize awaits all those finishing with a full passport.
CLICK HERE to register to come along. It’s important for us to know how many people are coming so we can cater accordingly so please do register – it will only take 2 minutes! If you don’t want to register online, please call the Down Syndrome NSW office instead on 02 9841 4444.
Once registered, you will automatically be provided with a fundraising page – it’s up to you to choose to use it not. If you do (we would love it!) it’s really easy – just send the link to your friends, family and colleagues and ask them to support the work we do by clicking on the link provided. All donations over $2 are tax deductible and people automatically receive a receipt.
Family Fun Day – enjoy yourselves after the walk:
Indulge in a FREE lunch, provided by CMP
- Get up close and personal with small animals at the PettingZoo
- Check out the Fire Truck (and Fireman!) visiting from Parramatta Fire Brigade
- Have your face painted
- Get the Balloon Twister to make you something fun
- Choose your design and watch your badge being made by our UPClub!
Enjoy performances by Parramatta Brass Band.The park has lots of big shady trees also and a children’s playground nearby, so bring a picnic rug and settle in to enjoy a relaxed day with family and friends.

Once you register, the fundraising part is as simple as sharing the link that your sign in generates for you. Personalise the page with photos and stories and share with your friends.
If you’re not up to walking, you can still participate as we’re also looking for volunteers to help manage the day. If this interests you, please email us at stepup@dsansw.org.au
