I participated in the 2019 Buckeyethon at Ohio State and was on the orange team. I joined with the Barrett-Nosker group because I lived in Barrett House during my freshman year with the BioSci Scholars. I took the night shift which means that I was at the dance from 7 pm to 7 am of the next day. During the 12 hour shift, I had to stay standing up and participate in various Buckeython activities.
The main dance floor of Buckeyethon in the Student Union.
My favorite activity at the dance was the Silent Disco. I met a bunch of new people that I hung out with the whole night, and we all had so much fun. I was completely exhausted by the end of my 12 hour shift, but it was worth it. I personally raised over $500 and was proud to be able to contribute to the amazing fundraising efforts that go to Nationwide Children’s Hospital.
