ANNUAL DANCE MARATHON SUPPORTS CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

Posted by Debbie Adlof on November 4th, 2008

 BRADLEY STUDENTS WILL BE DANCING THE NIGHT AWAY

            College students pulling an all-nighter may not be unusual, but in this case it’s all in the name of a good cause – supporting the Children’s Hospital of Illinois.           

          The 8th Annual Bradley University Dance Marathon takes place Friday and Saturday November 7 & 8, 2008 in the new Markin Family Student Recreation Center on the Bradley University Campus. Opening ceremonies and dancing begins at 6 p.m. on Friday the 7th with closing ceremonies on Saturday the 8th starting at 4:30 p.m.

            Participants will hear from Children’s Hospital miracle families, enjoy entertainment by a magician and a variety of bands, and have the opportunity to take advantage of the new student recreation facility by rock climbing, swimming, and, of course – dancing!

             The dance marathon has raised more than $240,000 in the past seven years.
