Just checking to see if anyone who submitted photos for the NDSS Times Square Video has heard anything back?
Dani was on two years ago. I wrote a suggestion to them that since they get so many responses to try and spread it out every year and allow the opportunity for other beautiful kids to be "spotlighted".
I also suggested to NDSS to find a distibutor of checks with the NDSS logo or Buddy Walk logo on it with part of the proceeds from purchasing the checks going back to National. I immediately received a response, as it was not thought of before. The kind lady who responded said she was getting road blocked. I sure hope I can proudly present a Down Syndrome Awareness check as payment for something some day. Just my humble opinion and thought.

I got a phone call from NDSS saying my email addy had bounced back to them...turns out they had me as .com not .net. So almost immediately they sent the email telling me. I wonder if they do a few at a time alphabetically maybe.

Well the lady told me they are always anxious to get pics of older kids and adults because they don't get that many...so am sure that had something to do with us doing it again.
But it is a cute pic.

Susan...I TOLD YOU ...that the whole family snorkel pic was a shoo in but...you didn't want to be on the Jumbotron in your swimsuit!!!!!!!!!!! Next time...listen to me...LOL.
Actually the woman told me they had so many pics of younger people that they appreciated the older ones...meaning adults. I missed my chance to ask her what the criteria was...but my guess is it's pretty much random.
From last years video I noticed they picked lots of "action" shots so I was rather surprised that they picked this one from me which is obviously posed. Congrats to Ashlie!
