Maryland Celebration and Dance Party
The Maryland Senate, House of Delegates, and the Governor’s Office will honor persons with Down syndrome and their families with declarations recognizing March 21st as World Down Syndrome Day in Maryland. Celebrate with us on March 21st as you hear from Marylanders with Down syndrome leading up to a Dance Party at Saint Anne’s Parish House and Hall at 199 Duke of Gloucester St, Annapolis, MD 21401.
We will be meeting at Saint Anne’s Parish House and Hall from 11 AM to 12:30 PM.
