Logan’s Walk for Down Syndrome Awareness Neepawa family to hold sixth annual event next week
By Casper Wehrhahn

​
A local initiative raising awareness and providing a sense of community is returning for 2025. The Cox family, of Neepawa, is preparing to host Logan’s Sixth Annual Walk for Down Syndrome Awareness (formerly known as the Walk with Us Campaign). This walk has been hosted annually after Logan was born and diagnosed with Down Syndrome– a developmental disability caused by an extra chromosome. The 2025 walk will take place at the Langford Walking Trails at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 21, with a barbecue to follow.“We’ll be raising funds for Touchwood’s accessible playground again this year,” said Brandi Cox, Logan’s mother. One hundred per cent of the monetary support received through the walk will benefit the playground, which is located at 445 Commerce in Neepawa.
Donations for the accessible playground can be given directly to Touchwood Park via e-transfer to payables@ touchwoodpark.ca, using the password Logan. Alternatively, cash donations can also be given at Logan’s Walk. Touchwood Park asks that donors include their mailing address and a note of designation for the playground, as they will be issuing charitable receipts for donations of $10 or more. All members of the public are invited to attend Logan’s Walk. All interested in participating may find the Langford Walking Trails six miles east of Neepawa on Highway #16 and three miles south on Road #81 at the Whitemud Watershed Wildlife Management Area.
