MANLIUS -- The tradition continues at Fayetteville-Manlius High School.

The 2012 Dance Marathon helped raise $133,000 for Camp Good Days, a free summer camp on Keuka Lake for kids who have been affected by cancer.

It tops the $127,000 students raised last year.

Students packed into the high school Saturday night for the 12-hour dance marathon.

"You can just feel the pride throughout the whole school -- almost the entire student body is here tonight," said FM Senior Sarah Rosenbaum.

"I mean everyone comes out and they have a great time everyone loves to dance and everyone loves to support such an amazing cause," said FM Senior Sawyer Drew.

Students at the high school have been raising money for Camp Good Days for more than 20 years now.  Last year, students reached the $1 million mark.
