How To Follow Our THON 2021 Coverage
**Disclaimer** — The featured image above is not from THON 2021. It was taken in February 2020 before the coronavirus pandemic. This weekend, THON dancers, volunteers, and supporters are at home and attending virtually.
Today, we dance For The Kids.
That’s right, baby. It’s finally THON Weekend, and although dancers are tuning in from their living rooms this time around, we’re in for a busy few days.
A year’s worth of virtual fundraising will culminate as 592 Penn State students dance for 46 34 hours from home. Although the Bryce Jordan Center may be mostly empty, thousands of students and volunteers are working around the clock to support dancers and keep THON rolling along. Plus, local bands and even a few national acts will chip in some performances.
This year, Onward State isn’t on press row. We’re blogging from home, baby! But we’re still profiling dancers, interviewing volunteers, and providing you with up-to-the-minute coverage of THON 2021.
Live Blog
Over the next 40-odd hours, we’ll update this blog post with everything that happens this weekend. Our live blog is your home for all things Onward State during THON Weekend.
Over at @OnwardState, we’ll share all our stories, pictures, and videos from THON 2021.
Meanwhile, we’ll use @THONwardState to live-tweet the event, so check back in for minute-by-minute updates from Friday night through THON’s total reveal.
We’ll use our Instagram account to post pictures from around State College and emphasize the visual aspects of THON. We’ll also promote some fun activities, including bingo boards and interactive questionnaires, through our Instagram story.
Moms and dads, this one’s for you. We’ll be posting all our content on Facebook, too. Be sure to check in for new posts and pictures all weekend long.
