Nearly 100 people worked up a sweat in Bergen Beach on Sunday to raise money for a good cause.
A Zumbathon event was held to raise money for the American Cancer Society and to raise cancer awareness.
Attendees included cancer survivors, including Michelle Brodtman, of Long Island. "I just want to get the word out that the more money we raise it really does go to the people," she said. "I'm one of those people and I'm living proof that these are your fundraising dollars at work."
Organizers say they have more Zumba fundraising events planned for the coming months.
