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, don’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.

Parents Night Out Bowling Event🎳 @ Sproul Lanes in Springfield
Apr 29 @ 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm

Delaware County DSIG invites you to join us for a “Parents Night Out” of bowling at Sproul Lanes in Springfield, PA. This event will be held on Saturday, April 29th from 7:00 – 10:00PM. The evening of bowling and shoe rental will be free for all parents and caregivers of the DSIG. However, we encourage you to bring money for snacks, adult beverages, 50/50 and raffle baskets.

As a friendly reminder, your annual dues ($10) must be paid in order to attend the event. You can pay your dues the day of the event; please bring cash.

 RSVP by 4/20 to Megan via email [email protected].

As in the past, we ask that you RSVP responsibly. With the rising costs of these events, we introduced a new policy where you will be charged should you RSVP and not show up for the event.
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 this event. You will be required to pay that before you are 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 costs down for our families. We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your support in this matter.
