Utah Down Syndrome Foundation Charity Event

Team Holm Racing recently had the opportunity to participate in a charity event that was set up to raise money for the Utah Down Syndrome Foundation. We've done fundraisers for cancer research and for specific medial patients, but the Saturday we spent with these special kids and their families was an experience never to be forgotten. Their bright faces, their love for life, and their enthusiastic and engaging personalities definitely left an impression on us. We just hope that we were able to help them enjoy a day at the park.

The volunteers who organized the event did an incredible job, despite a bit of nasty weather that rolled in at the end of the afternoon. There were games and activities for all who came, and plenty of smiles all around. We put the sled right in the middle of all the festivities and set the table up with our gear and medals for the visitors to look at. We had a steady stream of the down syndrome foundation kids and their families coming by all afternoon. Guests guests were invited to sit in the driver or brakeman's seat and get their pictures taken. We had a great time answering their questions and signing autographs and even helping to make cotton candy.

We just wanted to thank all the volunteers who put the event together and congratulate them for doing such an incredible job! We'd also like to thank the down syndrome kids and their families for helping us have such a wonderful experience!

We are definitely looking forward to next year's event!
