Hollywood legend Dick Van Dyke was looking sprightly after giving back to his community. 

The star, 99, was seen departing Vandy Camp, a musical fundraising event featuring himself and his wife Arlene Silver, 53, at Aviator Nation Dreamland in Malibu on Saturday.

Dick – who recently shared his secret to staying fit – gave his beloved 1964 film Mary Poppins a stylish shout-out for the occasion. 

He wore a T-shirt referencing his ‘Step In Time’ musical number from the film, and the top featured a cartoon drawing of his character Bert, dancing on a rooftop with a chimney sweep slung over his shoulder.

Dick emerged with the ᴀssistance of a cane, at times leaning against a truck for support.

During the feel-good event, which also featured his a cappella group The Vantastix, Dick delighted attendees with a rousing rendition of the song Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and shared stories about surviving past fires.

‘Somehow our house survived. We got singed a little bit on the garage but we almost, but we almost, almost,’ Dick told the audience.

That wasn’t the only brush with a blaze Dick has faced.

Dick recounted being evacuated from his Mandeville Canyon home after the Bel-Air fire struck in 1961.

Miraculously, his home survived while the neighbors on either side of his property sadly lost their homes.

‘I’ve been through five fires. Back in the 60s, I lived in Mandeville Canyon, up on the ridge. That big Bel-Air fire came in and we had to leave. We came back and our house was standing there, the houses on both sides of us had burned down.

‘It’s fate. Somebody’s looking out for me.’

The fundraiser comes over a month after Los Angeles was afflicted by multiple devastating fires, resulting in countless evacuations and the destruction of numerous buildings. At least 29 lives were lost.

All the proceeds from Dick’s show benefitted Community Brigade, an LA-based organization which trains volunteers in fire preparedness and response.

Dick was forced to evacuate his Malibu home late last year after wildfires hit the area.

The star told Today the fire ‘was coming from the hill, you could see it. And oh my God, and we got out of here.’

He revealed he was forced to crawl to his car after exhausting himself trying to use a fire hose, saying: ‘I had exhausted myself, I couldn’t get up. Three neighbors came and carried me out and came back and put out a little fire in the guest house and saved me.’

Their family cat Bobo escaped their house during the blaze but fortunately made a safe return home.  

Van Dyke took to Facebook to announce Bobo had been found and shared a pH๏τo of the disgruntled feline as he reunited with his family.

He wrote: ‘We found Bobo as soon as we arrived back home this morning. There was so much interest in his disappearance that Animal Control was called in to ᴀssist.

‘But, thankfully he was easy to find and not harmed.’

Arlene added to a fan that Bobo’s wails had alerted them to his presence, writing: ‘He was not happy!!! I heard him before I saw him within minutes of us arriving back home. So grateful!!! Arlene.’
