Families and friends of THON gathered Sunday in the Multi-Sport Facility for the annual Family Carnival for an afternoon of fun games, activities, and music.

In addition to the festival’s events, THON also revealed its 2025 logo for its theme, “A Home for Hope.”

Of course, our photographers were on the scene to capture everything happening around the event.

Various campus organizations had booths throughout the facility giving families and guests plenty to do. Activities included face painting, coloring, miniature bowling, hair tinsel, a huge parachute, and much more.

On stage, there were performances and shows alike.

It was a special and eventful day for everyone there.

As the carnival began to come to a close, there were still a couple more performances and a speech from one of the THON families about their story.

There was a quick tug-a-war between a couple of THON kids (with the help of the Nittany Lion) and the field hockey team, with the kids dominating the challenge.

Finally, the THON logo was revealed.

We dance in 74, folks!
