Gallo’s Seafood, 8101 Roosevelt Blvd., on Saturday hosted Bobby Mizia’s annual Toys for Tots fundraiser for Magee’s spinal cord injury program and the ALS Association, in memory of Father Judge basketball coach Bill Fox and Bernie McAnena.

The event featured DJ Neil McGlynn, dancing, a buffet, raffles, prizes, a 50/50 and a tribute to the late Jerry “Geator with the Heater” Blavat, a big supporter of the event.

Guests were asked to bring a new, unwrapped toy and leave a tip for the celebrity bartenders to be donated. ••
