DANCER REGISTRATION PACKET<br />

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

Morale is here for YOU!<br />

The mission of the Morale Committee is to provide physical and emotional support for the dancers<br />

<strong>THON</strong> Weekend. The Morale Committee ensures the safety and wellbeing of the dancers and also extends its<br />

assistance to the <strong>THON</strong> Community throughout the entire year.<br />

Each dancer is paired with a Morale Committee Member who will serve as an extended support system<br />

for <strong>THON</strong> Weekend. Each dancer’s Moraler will be with them throughout the weekend in order to keep their<br />

spirits high and to look after their health. Moralers will also help with the removal of dancer’s personal items<br />

periodically throughout <strong>THON</strong> Weekend. Each dancer will be assigned a Moraler a few weeks prior to <strong>THON</strong><br />

Weekend, in which they can start getting to know their new friend!<br />

The Moraler will be encouraged to contact the dancer’s family and friends for additional ways to motivate<br />

them <strong>THON</strong> Weekend! It is very important for each dancer to complete their dancer survey so their Moraler can<br />

best support them during the weekend. Morale Committee Members use these surveys to get to know what<br />

helps each dancer.<br />

Remember, the sole purpose of a Moraler is to assist the dancers in any way possible in order to get<br />

them through the 46 hours. A dancer and their Moraler will establish a strong bond leading up to <strong>THON</strong>, and<br />

they will continue to build that bond throughout the weekend. The dancer’s Moraler will be their support system,<br />

so they should not be afraid to turn to them for anything they need!<br />

If you have any questions about your Moraler or Morale in general please feel free to contact the <strong>Dancer</strong><br />

Relations Captain, Justin Petrozzini, or the Overall Morale Chairperson, Melanie Sessa.<br />
