On Saturday, Feb. 18, the Dance Marathon was held. The Dance Marathon is a charity event to benefit the Riley’s Children Hospital. This is the second year FC had held the Dance Marathon.
“It was very successful,” said Tiffany Stansbury, the head of the committee for Dance Marathon.
The Dance Marathon was a fun and energetic event, that I personally loved. From the hot air balloon rides to dancing, this event had a magical feel that made everyone just want to have fun. The energy was great with Wii games and Kinect, along with its many bounce houses and act
ivities I was never bored.
The food was great and mostly donated, along with the shirts and the gifts for the kids. The best part of the whole thing was being able to say we were able raise part of the $24,503 to help all of the families who need it. Everyone who contributed to the Dance Marathon to make it so great has my thanks.
From the food to the final dance for the Riley kids, the entire day was amazing and I cannot wait for next year to see what new activities there will be and how much money we can raise. The Dance Marathon was incredible and even more people should come next year. The students and faculty who put this event together deserve to be thanked for all the hard work put in to make the Dance Marathon a success.
I know I cannot wait for next year and hope to see many more people there next year.
