DANCER REGISTRATION PACKET<br />

<strong>2013</strong> Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon<br />

MEDICATION REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS<br />

Please note:<br />

Any dancer candidate with any sort of significant medical condition (asthma, diabetes, heart condition, seizure or<br />

other neurological disorder) MUST fill out the “<strong>Dancer</strong> Medical History” form attached to this packet. Once<br />

these forms are returned to <strong>Dancer</strong> <strong>Registration</strong> Captains, it will be determined by the Overall Morale<br />

Chairperson and Overall Rules and Regulations Chairperson, alongside EMS personnel, if any dancer is not allowed<br />

or will be required to obtain a doctor’s consent to dance in <strong>THON</strong> <strong>2013</strong>. The instructions of the health care<br />

provider must be followed to lessen the likelihood that participation will adversely affect any dancer’s health or<br />

well being.<br />

What to register:<br />

• Any medication that you MUST take during <strong>THON</strong> must be registered with the School of Nursing.<br />

• You are not permitted to take any medications that have not been registered and given to<br />
