Overall Dance Marathon Committee Deserves Praise for Hard Work

Scott Werry and the 2002 Dance Marathon Overall Committee deserve lots of praise for their efforts in putting on the largest student fund-raiser in UNC history. Not only did they raise over $122,000 to give to the families of children in the N.C. Children's Hospital, but they also changed the lives of countless UNC students by giving them the opportunity to help those less fortunate. As former Overall Committee members, we can attest that these 12 individuals spent between 30 and 40 hours a week for the last several months in fund raising and preparation for the event. Their dedication, drive and compassion should not go unthanked. So if you see Scott Werry, Julie McManus, Ashley Hux, Shannon Saunders, Marcellus Parker, Leia Kelly, Mark Hosemann, Sarah Katherine Leaver, Natalie Halbach, Callie Taintor, Katie Jackson or Sarah Slater on campus, please give them a pat on the back and say thanks.
