Oriana Singers and Glee Club Benefitting THON April Newsletter

Congratulations to our new Executive Board for THON 2018-2019! Executive THON Chairs: Maeve Berry and Deric Liang Fundraising Chairs: Dana Hiyajneh and Devon Tighe Family Relations Chairs: Dominika Brice and Jared Kehler Donor and Alumni Relations Chair: Ellie Farber Stay tuned for more information about the members of the Executive Board! We are so excited for this upcoming year!

Additionally, THON 2018 was a major success! Our dancers, Rachel, Maeve, Miranda, and Matt, did an awesome job on the floor, and the org supported our dancers from the stands throughout the weekend. In between doing line dances and stretching out our feet with tennis balls, we had the opportunity to meet our new THON family, the Downies! Their son, Gunnar, is seven years old, and loves monster trucks, has loads of energy. He kept us busy on the floor with water gun fights and fun games. We're thinking about having another get-together in the summer or fall where we can have another water gun fight! Ultimately, THON 2018 and meeting the Downie family was awesome!

Although we don't have any events in the near future since THON is over and finals week is approaching, graduation is coming up, and we have a number of seniors who are graduating. Feel free to reach out and congratulate them on their accomplishments from the last four years! The graduating seniors include:

Michael Bellinson

Tim Gilpatrick

Matt Griffin

Logan Hutton

Will Preston

Miranda Waldman

Rachel Weeks

Harry Yeatman

All in all, THON 2018 was awesome, and the new Executive Board and I are so excited to begin working together for THON 2018-2019. To introduce myself, my name is Ellie Farber, and I am currently a freshman studying history and economics. I was a member of OGC and the Dancer Relations Committee this past year, and I am so excited to continue my involvement with THON next year! I really want to be accessible to keep alumni and donors connected, so feel free to reach out to me with any questions, comments, or concerns! Have an awesome day!
