Adrian College Presents Annual Dance Marathon
Participants now taking donations; looking for volunteers posted 2/12/08

ADRIAN, Mich. – Adrian College announces its annual dance marathon which will take place Mar. 29-30, 2008 at the Merillat Sports and Fitness Center. Participants are now seeking donations and volunteers.

The event, which includes Adrian College students dancing for 18 straight hours without breaks, is to raise money for the Hope Community Center in Adrian. Participants are asking community members for their help. Interested persons can donate their time by actively participating in the 18 hour event by becoming a dancer while raising money.

Participants are also looking for ‘moralers’- those community members who can help raise money and also help keep the morale up of the dancers by donating four hours of their time. They are also seeking out volunteers who help not only by raising money but also with setting up or cleaning after the event.

Any interested parties who cannot make the event but still want to help can make a donation. The Hope Community Center is a non-profit organization devoted to offering educational and recreational activities for local adults with physical, mental, or emotional impairments. All donations are greatly appreciated.

Checks can be made payable to ‘Adrian College Dance Marathon’ and sent to Adrian College Dance Marathon, 1325 William St., Caine Student Center, Adrian, MI 49221.
