I got an e-mail from John Arnao, the Penn State student who is communications chair for next year’s IFC/Panhel Dance Marathon, letting me know that next Thursday (July 23) is “Penn State Night” when the Phillies host San Diego at Citizens Bank Park. The Alumni Blue Band will perform before the game, and a portion of the ticket sales will be donated to THON. There’s more info at the Phillies’ Web site.

A week later, on Friday, July 31, the Pirates will host the Washington Nationals at PNC Park, and again a portion of each ticket sold will go to THON. The Dance Marathon Alumni Interest Group is involved in that one, and you can find out more about that game here.
