Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, who recently broke her back in a horse-riding accident, arrives with the help of a cane to the Mayor’s Gala Friday night at 104 Avenue Centre.
Proceeds from the annual event go to the Surrey Firefighters Endowment Fund, which supports more than 80 local charities.
Final tallies weren’t completed as of Monday, but the event typically raises between $75,000 and $100,000. About 700 people attended.
