THON officially announced its 2018 calendar of events Monday morning, including the date for what is supposed to be the organization’s final canning weekend ever. The weekend of an away football game against Iowa, September 23-24, is officially slated as students’ last chance to participate in a canning trip.

The organization announced last spring it planned to phase out canning by 2019 following the death of student Tally Sepot in a car accident returning from a fall 2015 canning trip. For fall 2016 canning trips, THON provided bus transportation for groups as a safer alternative than students driving.

Don't miss out on any THON events this year. Take a look and mark your calendars now! #FTK https://t.co/9wJe22dOdG
