Dance Marathon

The idea behind a dance marathon is to dance for those who can't.  Dance Marathon is meant to raise money and awareness for the "Children's Miracle Network". Children's Miracle Network provides care for children in hospitals. We are raising money for our local Miracle Network at "All Children's Hospital" in St. Petersburg Fl.  Dance Marathon will be taking place on March 20, 2014.  LCC Day School will be the first of hopefully many middle schools to come, to host such an event. The Miracle Network has raised over sixty-two million dollars for the kids! Leading up to this event, our school has been fundraising for "All Children's Hospital" by selling tee-shirts and balloons.  The profits from these sales go to the Miracle Network.  The event will start after school and finish at 9:30 p.m.  There will be an entry fee of five dollars. The money raised goes to the Miracle Network, and to cover the fees that it takes to run the event.  The seventh and eight grade students will take part in running the event.  There will be many activities to participate in as well as music!  The elementary students will come at different times, and participate in the event.  Like I mentioned earlier, the idea behind Dance Marathon is to dance for those who can't, so from 3:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. we will stay on our feet.  It may seem like a long time, but it is all to benefit others who need our help.  At times, you will be allowed to take a knee to rest, but for the rest of the time, you must stay on your feet.  I can not wait for Dance Marathon, and hope to see you all there!
