On Friday and Saturday, December 17 and 18, Springvale Toys for Tots held its 14th distribution event and the parents of (approximately) 1400 children came to choose gifts/toys for their children. This year Toys for Tots was fortunate to have the use of Curtis Lake Church’s multi-purpose room where the gifts were displayed for choosing and parents were escorted by elves, who were all members of the community. A small group of individuals have created this event year upon year to guarantee that children will have gifts to open on Christmas morning. Thanks to all the folks and businesses that donated, as well as to the Sanford students who showed up to help volunteer their time with setup, and the local restaurants and grocery stores that donated food for the volunteers.
