    NEW WINDSOR —Tickets are still available for the 15 annual American Cancer Society “Step into Spring” dinner and fashion show, to be held Monday, April 28 beginning at 6 p.m. at Anthony’s Pier 9 in New Windsor, with proceeds earmarked for breast cancer research. “Step into spring is a labor of love,” said Joan Pagones, who has the event since its inception. “A magical evening that brings together almost 1,000 women who unite to raise monies for a cure with an emphasis on hope and a celebration of survivorship.” Since its inception, Step Into Spring has raised over $850,000 to help support cancer research, as well as cancer education, prevention, programs and services for cancer patients and their families. The cost is $50 per ticket, or $600 for a table of 12. To attend or for more information, call the American Cancer Society at 800-ACS-2345.
