Why I DM?

As my time in Italy nears its end (I only have a little over 3 weeks left-crazy), I begin to look forward to things in the fall that I have planned....Sorority functions, school, football, and all the other typical things in my life!!

But as the summer continues, I realize what is truly important to me. Dance Marathon is one of the most amazing opportunities I've had in my life!! It is a wonderful experience, and I believe that any student on USC's campus should get involved in some way.

After dancing the full 24 HOURS my Freshman year, I was selected as MORALE CAPTAIN for DM2010 (as seen above with my fellow Morale Captains, attempting to form FTK-for the kids-with our arms...it didn't work so well). This year, I am lucky to be on the Leadership Board for the event, acting as the University Events Coordinator. This means that all events taking place on campus before the day of are under my control. I, along with my AMAZING team, get the privilege to raise awareness and excitement as the event approaches!!! Learn More About Children's Miracle Network

In order to do this, we plans fun events that will help get the campus psyched for what is to come. Some things planned are: Watefight for the Kids-September 10th (our first main event, a waterfight that is BYOB-bring your own balloon, escape the summer heat and enjoy a fun slip 'n slide finale, while raising money and awareness for USC DM and Children's Miracle Network). We have a 5k and Tot Trot-October 10th for all of our athletic participants and supporters out there. AMAZING BENEFIT CONCERTS-October 20th at Jillian's in the Vista. And 100 Days Until DM-November 18th (a Battle of the Bands Blowout at Red Hot Tomatoes in 5 Points-the winning band will get to perform the day of at DM in front of almost 700 Students!!!!!) All of this takes place within BLITZ WEEKS on Campus!!
