Over the years, we have seen everything from Matchboxes to dolls to sports equipment to stuffed animals to toy construction equipment to games to bikes. No matter the size of the donation, all donations arrived with big feelings from the heart.
Thank you to everyone that participated and donated! Thank you to the Marines overseeing Toys For Tots efforts in Baltimore County! The children that will receive each heartfelt gift thank you!! Our efforts have contributed to the #1 Toys For Tots program on the East Coast!
Goodness, the morning of Saturday October 19, 2019 was a very special morning. Thank you to everyone that brought the requisite positive energy and thank you to all that donated the new, unwrapped toys to bring smiles for the disadvantaged children throughout Baltimore County this holiday season!
Thank you to all in the Marines 4th Combat Engineering Battalion that devote their time and energy to the Toys For Tots program. Under SSgt Bowman’s leadership, the 2019 donation and distribution season will surely be special. Thank you to each sponsor of Hunt Valley Horsepower that makes our community possible. We’re nearly 400 gatherings strong and we’re stronger than ever. Thank you to Bob Davidson Ford Lincoln for providing a Ford Raptor for the 3rd year. It made on-site donation movement a breeze. Our community’s latest sponsor, The Bryant & Kan Group, donated a ton of toys and showed support in grand fashion. The team also crafted a video to mark the occasion. Thank you to every single person that made Saturday a better Saturday! See you down the road!
[The donation exceeded the donation box capacity so most of the toys - including a truck full of bicycles, a truck full of stuffed animals and so many donations from our community members and sponsors - are already loaded into the moving truck!]
Saturday, October 13, 2018 was a soaker nearly right up to the time of the event-capping photo. Because of the rain, it was the first time in 6 years where the donations were placed directly in the transport van instead of being displayed proudly on the event grounds. Our community took to the roads with what each considered their monsoon vehicle. Some donated and held it out through the rain. Others opted for the drive-through donation. All will make a great impact this holiday season. For a second-straight year, a big thank you goes to Bob Davidson Ford Lincoln for the 18-hour donation of the spectacular Ford Raptor 4x4 Supercrew. Thank you to each community member and sponsor for your donations! Of course, thank you to the Marines from the 4th Combat Engineering Battalion for their time and coordination efforts!
The gathering on October 14, 2017 battled overnight rains and the morning mist but the community, the Marines, the Ford Raptor - courtesy of Bob Davidson Ford Lincoln - and even our koala mascot all rose to the occasion!
