The Community Club is once again having a Christmas Toy Drive for new and gently used toys for those little ones in need. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for dates since they already had one but I will pass on dates as I see. What a true gift to our Community, this is so wonderful for those members to carry on treasured times in this season from what Lions members did for many years! Still remember well as a child myself.
