Hundreds of cool cars and car fans converged on the D.W. Poppy school grounds in Langley on Sunday.
It was the 30th anniversary of the annual fundraising event at the school, located at 23752 52 Avenue.
“It’s the number one fundraiser for the school,” said Principal Balan Moorthy, who doesn’t know of any other Lower Mainland school that hosts a car show.
The one-day event raised a record $29,000 for the school from entry fees from the 670 cars and 2,500 visitors who attended.
Last year, the show brought in $25,000.
![Especially given the recent heavy rains and threats of high river levels, one might wonder if the village streets in Fort Langley were actually flooding. But rest assured they did not, said photographer Brigitte Seib. “The picture I took, received many comments on Facebook wondering if there was a film crew or a flood. I probably should have posted the picture on April 1st :). I later posted the additional picture reflecting and advised the village of Fort Langley that all was well… just reflecting on life at the [Fort Langley Community] Hall,” she shared.
