Let's Be Partners in the Fight 
 
Dallastown Area High School will host its 5th Annual Mini-THON beginning at 7:00 p.m., Friday, March 1st. This fun-filled event for high school students inspires teamwork, leadership, and creativity while empowering them through philanthropy and service in the fight to conquer childhood cancer. Last year's event raised more than $76,000.

Students stay standing and active during the 12-hour overnight event to raise money and awareness for the Four Diamonds Cancer Research Foundation.

Food and snack contributions are welcome and should be delivered by Thursday, February 28th, to the high school office. Financial donations can be made online at: I want to donate to the Dallastown Mini-THON to Conquer Childhood Cancer
