There’s a particular weekend each February that means the world to Jack Sylves, a 6-year-old from State College, and his 7-year-old sister, Marlowe. It’s the annual THON Weekend, an unforgettable opportunity for kids like Jack and Marlowe to run around Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center, basking in the attention of college students who are enduring a 46-hour dance marathon.
“They talk about it all the time,” says Scott Sylves, their dad. “After our first THON in 2019 they asked if we could go again the next weekend. Their favorite part has always been the love and support they feel from the dancers on the floor. They love shooting them with water guns and silly string.”
