Students participate in last year's Friday Night Fever/FACE AIDS Annual Dance Marathon. This year's marathon will begin Friday, Nov. 11, at 6 p.m., in the lower level of the University of Wyoming Union.

Dancers will help raise money for FACE AIDS during Friday Night Fever's annual dance marathon from 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 11, to 6 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 12 in the lower level of the University of Wyoming Union.

FACE AIDS is a philanthropic nationwide student organization that educates students about HIV and AIDS. "Members of FACE AIDS do not raise funds for charity, we raise funds for justice," says Nicolette Kaliebe, FACE AIDS member and student, says.

This year's dance theme is an '80s-inspired "Night at the Roxbury: What is Love?" Live performers and high-energy DJs are scheduled for each hour of the night and into the morning.

In addition to an electric lineup of DJs and performers, there will be free snacks, dinner and beverages.

Throughout the night there will be raffles for prizes, awards for "longest participant," "largest donation," "most enthusiastic," "best costume," "best dance moves" and many more prizes.

For more information, contact Friday Night Fever at 766-6340 or at fnf@uwyo.edu.
