Superdance - 51 Years Dancing for the Cure!

What is Superdance?

Superdance is a 12-hour dance marathon held annually at Bishop O’Connell High School to raise money to help find a cure for cystic fibrosis. The students of Bishop O'Connell have raised more than $6 million since the dance was founded in 1976. This event is the largest high school fundraiser for this cause. More than 95 percent of the student body participates in this event each year. The twelve hours are packed with live bands, DJs, games, and much more.
