Tomorrow the Grand Star staff will be recognizing World Down Syndrome Day. Please wear crazy socks or blue and yellow to help spread awareness. In case you were curious...The date for WDSD is the 21st day of the 3rd month. It was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.
