An old time/new vogue dance at Tangambalanga on Sunday attracted 100 people who donated $900 through entry fees and raffles for the Albury-Wodonga Prostate Cancer Support Group.
This boosted the totals already achieved by the groups Blue Tie Ball and Fathers Day dance earlier in September.
Support group convener Glenn Rose said 108 dancers joined the ball at Commercial Club Albury and many returned for the next days afternoon dance.

We had people come from Melbourne attend on Saturday night and backed up again on Sunday, he said.
This is the third of the Blue Tie Balls and each year weve raised more.
The money collected will assist the professional development of health workers to improve the care of prostate cancer patients during and after treatment, for example by paying course costs.
The support group meets on the second Tuesday of each month and can be contacted at awpcsg.org or email awpcsg@gmail.com.
