8th Annual Rockin Rollin Dance Marathon
8th Annual Rockin Rollin Dance Marathon
Zeno Mountain Farm is pleased to announce their 8th annual Dance Marathon. The event takes place on Saturday, November 15th in their renovated barn-turned-theatre in Lincoln. From 1 p.m. to 1 a.m., the space will be filled with dancers, live music, great food, costumes, and roller skating. This year the theme is rock and roll. The money raised will support their programming for the upcoming year.
This fundraiser and dance party is a grassroots, community run event and it's a pretty epic scene. Open to anyone and everyone, people gather at Zeno to dance the day and night away. Musicians from Vermont donate their talents for 12 hours of live bands, and DJs. JoyRidersVT provides free roller skating. People volunteer to cook food, help decorate and so much more so that Zeno can continue its mission of creating lifelong connections.
There are many different ways to participate (even online). For more information: https://fundraise.givesmart.com/e/aahyTg?vid=1m92sr
Established in 2008, Zeno hosts retreats for people with disabilities, cancer, chronic illness, those in sobriety and veterans. A key part of their model is that they don't charge or pay anyone to attend, and people are invited back year after year.
The mission of Zeno is to support lifelong friendships and opportunities for people with and without disabilities and other marginalized communities. They host annual retreats and camps at their home base in Lincoln, VT. Currently, they have 15 different retreats throughout the year spanning over 100 days.
