Tonight, students who attend the Lighthouse can help the families and victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

The Red, White and Blue Dance will be held from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday at the Wesley Foundation on Fourth Street. There will be a $2 cover charge donated to families and victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

On Saturday, the same dance will be held for junior high and high school students in the Charleston Area.

There will be refreshments sold and foosball, pool and Ping-Pong games will be available.

Campus minister Tony Fober said that the Wesley Foundation has provided students with a non-alcoholic alternative to the party and bar scene at Eastern for the past 14 years. The Lighthouse, a techno dance club, is sponsored by The Wesley Foundation and offered every Friday night.

Lisa Chazich, a freshman elementary education major, is one of the many students who is involved with organizing the Red, White and Blue Dance.

She and the other students involved with Wesley Foundation hope to use this dance to help the people in New York and Washington D.C., as well as increase student awareness about the Lighthouse.

“Nobody really knows where or what the Lighthouse is,” she said.

Fober said the Wesley Foundation is an interdenominational organization, supported by the United Methodist Church.

“We are looking for places were we can help and serve,” Fober said.

The dance is open to the public.
