WE ARE VERY EXCITED TO BE ABLE TO HOST A LIVE BUDDY WALK ON , OCTOBER 16, BUT…

. . . we are not “out of the woods” yet with the pandemic. The DSN board decided that we keep this year’s Buddy Walk very basic and simple to encourage social distancing. We will not have the traditional pre-walk events: games, inflatables, entertainment under the big tent, and displays. Instead, we will set up a schedule so that every Team can gather at the Champaign County Fairgrounds at a specific time to do their walk.

2021 THEME: CREATE YOUR OWN TEAM THEME

Instead of having an event theme, each Team can Create a Team Theme. The Buddy Walk will have a Team Theme competition. Teams will be judged on creativity and participation. Team competition winners will be announced on October 22.
