This year, your City fire stations collected 790 toys. These toys will be distributed to local children this year. A wide variety of new, unused toys will be given out to children over the next few days.

Each holiday season the fire department places a large red box near the front entrance of each fire station. Toys are retrieved and stored by firefighters. Toys this year ranged from stuffed animals to a brand-new bicycle. Department members and volunteers work together to inventory the toys and they are then distributed by the Toys for Tots program.

Please extend a heartfelt thank you for helping us make a child’s holiday season so much more memorable.

The program will continue next year.
