THON 101: Hospitality
The principal duty of the Hospitality, or HOS, Committee is to acquire and distribute all food and beverages during THON weekend and various pre-THON events. HOS connects the community and sponsors to THON by obtaining donations throughout the year. It will be easy to spot the HOS-associated, as they will be rocking some kickin’ hot pink shirts (not to be confused with the light pink apparel of the Merchandise Committee).
In the week leading up to the 46, HOS has been getting in touch with all of their donors and securing the donations for THON weekend. Once THON commences, they will be setting up, preparing, and serving meals to all the dancers, committee captains, and Four Diamonds Families in the BJC for the whole weekend. You will spot numerous HOS committee members on the dance floor, working the HOS table opposite the stage and handing out food to the dancers.

Jim’s Army & Navy: The Greatest Store Ever
For those of you who have ventured onto the west side of Beaver Avenue, there is a good chance you have passed by Jim’s Army & Navy. If you are one of those people, your first thought when passing by Jim’s was most likely, “What the hell is going on in this store?” When a store’s window display boasts handcuffs (they even come in pink), switchblades, throwing stars, machetes, other swords, and ammunition, you really have no choice but to be utterly confounded. Little did I know that I was about to walk into the greatest store ever.
