There is a wonderful organization at the University of Kentucky called DanceBlue. This organization ran by students, hosted yet another party for children with childhood cancer and their families. Our family went with Rashel, Trystan, and Keegan to the Christmas party and had a blast. There was sugar cookie decorating, gingergread house making, ornament creating and alot of wonderful food. Santa also made an appearance and the kids loved telling him about their wants! Not only does DanceBlue have these great parties throughout the year, every February, they hold a 24 hour, no sitting, so sleeping dance marathon to raise money for the UK Pediatric Oncology Clinic. This was started in 2006 and in just 3 years, has raised over $750,000.00! That is amazing! Please keep your ears open for the next annual DanceBlue marathon on March 6-7 2009.
