Deacon Dash for Down Syndrome

About the Event

This will be our 10th annual 3-2-1 Deacon Dash for Down Syndrome and we are all excited to be back together again!  The 3-2-1 Deacon Dash for Down Syndrome is a 5K race fundraising event with an extra .11 mile added for a 3.21 total distance for the awareness and support of individuals with Down syndrome! Most people have 2 copies of 23 different chromosomes, but individuals with Down syndrome are born with 3 copies of the 21st chromosome (the medical term for this is Trisomy 21).
