Where Are You THON-ing From?

It’s finally time!  Just a little while ago, 707 dancers began standing on the floor of the Bryce Jordan Center participate in the 46 hour no-sleep, no-sitting dance marathon: THON.

We want to hear where you’re THON-ing from!  Whether you’re cheering from the stands, or watching at home on the livestream, we want to know how you’re supporting the kids.

For the next day or so, we’ll be collecting photos and stories about your THON experience. At the end, we’ll create a map to see just how far THON reaches around the world.


Feel free to submit photos of you decked out #FTK to [email protected].  We look forward to hearing from you!
