MARS — Two area children will appear among the bright lights of Broadway on Sept. 15 as part of the National Down Syndrome Society's annual Times Square video presentation.

Photographs of Dolly Searle, the daughter of Kelly and Justin Searle of Valencia, and Liam Settlemire, the son of Stefanie and Grant Settlemire of Mars, will be among 500 photographs that will appear in the video, which will be shown in the heart of Times Square.

The featured photographs highlight children, teens and adults with Down syndrome, in an effort to remind the world about the contributions and milestones of people with Down syndrome.

These collective images promote the value, acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome.

The photos of Dolly and Liam were selected from more than 2,400 entries in the NDSS worldwide call for photos. Almost 500 photographs will appear in the video.

The video presentation will be followed by the 24th Annual Flagship Buddy Walk in New York City.
