The THON Overall Committee has just announced the theme for the 2013 THON year. And it is...“Inspire Tomorow’s Miracles.”
One of the newer, and exciting, fundraisers the IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon has to offer is the FT5K. The annual 3.1 mile fun run, which started 12 years ago, has boasted one of the most exciting atmospheres outside of the February THON weekend.
Last Friday, Onward State published a comprehensive canning map which disclosed the city and group name of every registered THON canning location across the Northeast, however we were requested to take it down due to a new THON policy prohibits canning locations from being published due to what THON describes as "safety concerns."
Canning is only two days away! Read this guide for ways to increase your total and have fun while doing it.
Every February it happens. A 46 hour, no sitting, no sleeping dance marathon to celebrate life and hope and to remember those that we have lost to pediatric cancer. "Why We Dance: The Story of THON" is the documentary that followed The Penn State Dance Marathon for an entire year to capture the essence of THON and why it means so much to so many people.
As the first Canning Weekend of the year approaches, all of those looking to make the trip must first attend a canning workshop this week. THON has also announced free transportation through Megabus for each of this year's 3 canning weekends.
