The 2017 Buddy Walk will feature the Imagination Movers on Saturday, Sept. 23, at AT&T Field.  

Registration is at 9 a.m. and the festivities begin at 10 a.m. 

The Chattanooga Down Syndrome Society will bring the band’s high-energy entertainment to this year's Buddy Walk, a day to celebrate the abilities of the members of the community with Down syndrome. This is the second annual Buddy Strut, where all individuals with DS are celebrated for their accomplishment. 

The Imagination Movers will dance, play, and raise awareness for loved ones with Down syndrome. This children’s rock band appeals to preschoolers, school-aged kids, parents and young adults with the songs featured on their Disney television show.

For the first time, job resources will be available as well as organizations that provide support to families all year long.
