Lakewood Ranch grad takes part in FSU Dance Marathon for kids

 TALLAHASSEE  – Kyle Dunnington, a political science major at Florida State University and a 2008 Lakewood Ranch High School grad who calls Bradenton home, is external fundraising chair for the 17th annual Dance Marathon.

The program  benefits Children’s Miracle Network at Shands Hospital for Children and the FSU College of Medicine’s Pediatric Outreach Program.

The marathon will be held at the Tallahassee Leon County Civic Center on Feb. 17-19.

More than 3,000 students are expected to participate, with 1,800 of them volunteering to dance. The 40-hour event is split into two 20-hour shifts, where dancers commit to being on their feet for 20 hours straight pledging to “stand for those who can’t."
