Maddie really enjoys coming to DSAGSL programs and events.  She participated in two weeks of the Lydia Cox Memorial Bike Camp this summer and made it up on two wheels!!  Maddie came to Step Up for Down Syndrome on June 3rd with her TAGG cheer leading team to cheer on all the families as they walked, and everyone had a blast!  She also completed the 8 week Employment Academy classes and developed a visual resume as well as important professional skills she can now practice during her internship!
