The Mayor's Gala - An Arabian Night

It was a night of exciting entertainment, exotic tastes and great fun for the many guests of the Arabian Night-themed 6th annual City of Pickering Mayor's Gala on Nov. 20.

Ingrid Bergman or Humphrey Bogart wouldn't have seemed out of place at the lavishly decorated Pickering Recreation Complex, where bright colours and exotic scents welcomed guests to the rich diversity of an Arabian setting. The Mediterranean, Middle East and Indian cuisine, paired with performing acrobats and dancers was a sight that fit perfectly with the gala theme.

Proceeds from the evening were split between the Alzheimer Society of Durham, the Grandview Children's Foundation and Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital.

A special thank you to City of Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, Gala Chair Diana Hills Milligan and all of the volunteers and guests who made the night such a wonderful experience.
