Dr MARJORIE O'NEILL (Coogee) (21:33:00): I congratulate the Cancer Council on its fabulous Stars of the East, Dance for Cancer gala night. This inaugural event brings together our community for an evening of laughter, entertainment and fundraising. Congratulations to everyone who competed. There were, however, some stars who stole the show. Special congratulations to the People's Choice Award winner, Lynne O'Brien, with dance partner Heloise Ella from Leap Performing Arts, and the Judge's Choice Award winner, Shelley Bays, with dance partner Chloe Rosenberg. Lastly, huge congratulations to the Highest Fundraiser Award winner, Dirk Hansen, with dance partner Kristine Wuthrich. Collectively, this wonderful event raised over $60,000 for the Cancer Council; an amazing result for an amazing cause. Thanks to East Leagues Club for hosting this fantastic event and congratulations to all involved.
