toys for tots

Doesn't matter if "ho-ho-ho" or "ooh-rah" gets you rolling, this Saturday (Dec. 10) is the day to answer the call for Christmas during the Give a Toy, Get a Ticket Event.

Local employees in Union Gap are planning a Toys For Tots fundraiser for Tuesday, December 6th. Today from 4pm to 10pm, patrons who bring in a new unwrapped toy will receive 20% off entire guest check ( exclude alcohol purchases and sales tax)...

Thursday morning here at Townsquare Media, the United States Marine Corps will be here from 7-10 a.m. as part of the Toys for Tots program. They're collecting new, unwrapped toys and distributing them as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in our community...

What a fantastic day it was for the United States Marine Corps, Toys R Us and all the kiddos who stopped by to check out the military vehicles and equipment. People came in droves to donate new, unwrapped toys as Toys For Tots kicked off this year's campaign.

The Marines are landing! That is, they're launching their annual Toys for Tots campaign this Saturday (Nov. 5) at the Union Gap Toys R Us, 1401 E. Washington Ave.

Whoa! Christmas is already on the way! Which means our local Marines are already gearing up for the 100th year of Toys for Tots. We need to help by stocking them up with lots of brand-new toys for needy children in our area. Our first chance is at this weekend's annual bike run in Yakima.

As usual, the United States Marine Corps showed up first. And come Christmas, a whole lot of Yakima Valley kids will be glad they did. But the Marines weren't the only ones who rolled into Steve Hahn Volkswagen-Kia-Mercedes Benz for the sake of this year's Toys for Tots drive Friday morning...

Friday, December 11th at 6am the United States Marine Corps will be hanging out at 1st and Mead with their M 1 A 1 tank. Every year the USMC and 94.5 KATS-FM, 92.9 The Bull, 1073 KFFM, News-talk 1280 KIT, 1460 ESPN and Mega 99.3 teams up with Steve Hahn Volkswagen, KIA and Mercedes Benz of Yakima to gather up as much money and toys as we can for 'Toys For Tots' foundation.

Toys for Tots is and non-profit organization headed up by the USMC. It started in 1947 and has been growing strong ever since gathering up toys and money so that all kids have a new toy for Christmas. We did a chili cook off at Owens with USMC Bravo Company 4th Tank Battalion and it was a huge success.

The United States Marine Corps will be on hand this Saturday (Nov. 14) at Dickey's Barbecue Pit to accept brand-new toys for their excellent program for children, Toys for Tots.
