March 21 is set aside to commemorate World Down Syndrome Day. What makes this day special is the remembrance that 3/21 represents a third copy of the 21st chromosome, which causes Down Syndrome. Two of the three owners of The Plains Taproom in Auburn have children with Down Syndrome. Owners Justin Alexander, Dion Peoples and Scott Brown hosted a family event with music, face painting, games and food. A portion of proceeds from the event were donated to Auburn-Opelika Down Syndrome Alabama. The Plains Taproom is located at 200 W. Glenn Ave., Suite 200, in Auburn.
