Love the photos! I caught Dance Marathon fever after working with the families from Children's Miracle Network during our event at UO this year. I'm already looking forward to next year. It literally boggles my mind to imagine the logistics of an event this large!

THON reaches a milestone!

"We are so proud to have finally reached the $100 million milestone. This is an achievement that not only present students and volunteers should be proud of, but an accomplishment that all past dancers, students, and volunteers should rejoice in. We are all part of reaching $100 million."
- Will Martin, Overall Chairperson for THON 2013
