On Mother’s Day, the Toronto Revellers, led by former NBA star Jamaal Magloire, hosted a heartwarming event to honor mothers, with Marion Magloire, Jamaal’s mother, receiving special recognition. The event, held at the Scarborough mas camp on 2206 Eglinton Avenue East, saw hundreds of mothers and supporters gather to celebrate the spirit of motherhood.

From the early hours, the venue buzzed with excitement as guests were welcomed with complimentary food and drinks, setting the stage for a day filled with joy and community spirit. The atmosphere was electric, thanks to the energetic beats provided by three local DJs who ensured the crowd was on their feet.
