Tomorrow evening, join SLUDM and Billikens After Dark for their Mini-Dance Marathon at the Billiken Club!

This mini marathon will allow SLU students to learn more about SLUDM and to see the uniqueness of the organization and event. The mini marathon is primarily to show appreciation for the dance marathon’s past participants and to show potential participations about the mission and event.

There will be a bunch of activities taking place, such as learning part of a line dance, hearing a story from a CMN representative, games, food, and of course – dancing with a DJ! This mini marathon gives just a taste of the actual dance marathon. Stop by and see what all the buzz is about!
