Leave Your Legacy is Dance Marathon at FSU's largest spring fundraising push that will be taking place January 25th through January 26th. This year, Leave Your Legacy is highlighting one of our beneficiaries, FSU's College of Medicine pediatric outreach programs. These programs directly benefit and help the local Tallahassee community by providing a variety of services like county school clinics, mobile dental office, a variety of helpful programs, and so much more. We have decided to highlight this beneficiary to hopefully create a love for this organization for anyone who encounters our organization.
During this fundraising push, we plan to host a kick off carnival on Landis Green where carnival-like games will be set up, a food truck rally will take place, and a variety of activities for participants. Additionally, our internal team would be there to table for our merchandise, recruitment, and more. The carnival would take place on Landis Green from 6-8:30pm on Tuesday 1/25. We are also hoping to host food trucks.
On 1/26, we plan to table all day on Landis Green (9am-4pm). Our internal team will be there to help participants fundraise through our fundraising hub, sell DM at FSU merchandise, spread awareness about College of Medicine, and more. We will also have 2 of our College of Medicine beneficiary programs join us, Gadsden County School Clinics and Big Bend Hospice.
Following tabling all day, we plan to travel with the gong to each facility house for the registered student organizations involved with Dance Marathon at FSU. For the organizations without chapter facilities, we have rented the yard of Wesley to host these organizations. The gong is the heartbeat of the Marathon, so this moment of hitting the gong because of how much you fundraised is an unforgettable experience for our participants. The Gong on Tour would take place from 5-7pm on 1/26.
Last but not least, we plan to host another CarChella. Last year during Marathon weekend, we hosted this in the Civic Center parking lot. This year for Leave Your Legacy, we have rented University Center B parking lot (beside Langford Green). CarChella is a drive in event where participants stay in their car, choose a radio station, and listen to DJs play music. We will only have 2 DJs to choice from. For this event, I have be in contacted with FSU Parking Services in order to rent the parking lot spaces. There will also be a parking attendant present. We are also hoping to host food trucks for this event as well.
Last but not least, we will be hosting a reveal at the College of Medicine courtyard to showcase how much we fundraised during this fundraising push while also creating another connection to the College of Medicine for our dancers.
In this EP, I am also including rooms that have been reserved in SSB and rooms in academic space that we are still confirming. These rooms will serve as meeting locations for our executive board, management team, and delegate team. Some of our internal teams will also use this space to host team check ins and meetings throughout the fundraising push.
