DOWN SYNDROME WALK DIDN'T LET RAIN DAMPEN THE CELEBRATION March 21 is designated as World Down Syndrome Day which brings people together to celebrate Down Syndrome and raise awareness. World Down Syndrome Day is a global awareness day, recognized by the United Nations since 2012, aiming to educate the world about Down syndrome, promote inclusion, and advocate for the rights and well-being of individuals with Down Syndrome. It serves as an opportunity to celebrate the uniqueness of individuals with Down Syndrome and raise awareness about this genetic condition that affects approximately one in every 700 live births in the United States. For more information, please visit the National Down Syndrome Society website: www.ndss.org. For those in our community, Saturday, March 23, 2024 was selected as the day to gather and celebrate members of our community with Down syndrome, along with family and friends, helping to raise awareness for the larger Coos Bay area. On this rainy Saturday morning, a large group of community members met at the Coos Bay Boardwalk with umbrellas and banners to walk the distance together, ending at Puerta Vallarta Restaurant in downtown Coos Bay. It was a wet day, but the rain did not damper spirits or smiles, both were abundant! Michaela Walker's Family Dentistry provided t-shirts for the event which helped this group of over 50 community members come together in visual unison, walking the sidewalks in Coos Bay. Coos Bay Police Officers supported the Awareness Walk by ensuring safe crossing of both north bound and south bound Hwy 101. Sincere thanks to Officer Wesley and Officer Lyon for their time on Saturday. All photos courtesy of Allan Ledesma.Photos from Coos Bay - City Government's post

MAYOR'S MESSAGE Read the complete Proclamation here: https://www.coosbayor.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/3255 March is Women’s History Month and this week the City Councilors and I approved a proclamation to acknowledge the significant contribution women have had in shaping our nation and our community. Their hard work and dedicated focus have touched all areas of life and professional industries. Proclamations are a way for the City to bring attention to elements of life that may go unnoticed and also helps align voices across the nation. This also can transition easily into calling all of us to acknowledge, participate, and support the many things at work in our community. To stand behind the people and businesses we believe in will help to further bind our community together towards a common goal. This can be done in so many ways: Shopping local – support and frequent the businesses that are doing great things in our community. Volunteer – there are many organizations that would gladly take a helping hand, private, non-profit and government. Check in with your kid’s school, the hospital, the library, the visitor center. Do your part to keep your neighborhood safe and clean, and develop connections with your neighbors. Your efforts might be the thing that helps a business or organization continue. You might learn ways your special expertise could be put to use. Encourage your friends and family to do the same. I think we might find just these little steps might set us on the path to a stronger more engaged community. -Joe Benetti, Mayor of Coos Bay
