Delco DSIG Spring Fling 2022

DSIG is excited to host our first in person event in over two years!

šŸŒøšŸŒ·šŸŒ¼

Please join us onĀ Wednesday, April 20th from 6 to 9PM at Paxon Hollow Country Club for a Spring FlingĀ event. This event will be held with no restrictions regarding masking or vaccination status.

Please RSVP to Megan Califano,Ā [email protected], by Wednesday, April 13th. Please provide your family name, number of adults, number of kids (12 and under) and any dietary restrictions. Please note: we will try to accommodate these dietary requests, but all may not be possible.

RSVP NOW

As in years past, we ask that you RSVP responsibly.Ā With the rising costs of these events we are introducing a new policy where you will be charged should you RSVP and not show up for the event.Ā We understand emergencies and other situations occur however, the organization can no longer absorb the cost of these events when people are a no show. For this particular event, we ask that if there is a change to your RSVP that you notify us within 24 hours of the event. If we are not notified in the appropriate amount of time, you will be charged the amount that the organization was charged for your plate. You will be required to pay that before you will be allowed to attend any other DSIG events. We hope that you understand how hard it was for us to make this decision, but this is our way of trying to keep all of our events free of charge for our families. We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your support in this matter.

Additionally, we will be collecting annual dues at this event, dues have not changed as we are still only charging $10 per family. As a reminder, this is a nominal commitment for your support of our organization.

We hope to see you on the 20th!

By all means, use this meeting place to mingle! Use this time to meet up with OUR T21 FAMILIES who live in PA, NJ and DE! Additionally, this is a great time to take pictures for social media!

Depending on our ticket sales number, we could be given more perks. For example, one of our loved ones with T21 could throw out the first pitch and a pre-game video! Can you help to make this happen? If so, donā€™t delay purchasing your tickets!

How this works:
Rally your friends and family to celebrate Down Syndrome in the Delaware Valley while watching the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.
