    It's that time of the year again!!

    On Saturday December 6th, the Triangle Italians will be hosting our 7th Annual Toy Drive for the Durham Rescue Mission.

    Our Toy Drive has become the main source of Christmas presents for the Durham Rescue Mission...so please, be generous! With your gratitude, the kids at the Durham Rescue Mission can have a Christmas that most of us take for granted.

    The guidelines for a Christmas present are as follows:
    - Boys & Girls ages 12 and under
    - Please make sure the gift remains unwrapped

    Our plan for the morning will be as follows:
    - We will meet @ Brier Creek @ Jason’s Deli around 10:00AM
    - We will start lining up cars ~10:50 and leave the parking lot around 11:10. I'll be working with the Raleigh Police to get Lumley closed off so we can exit onto 540 as a group.

    - Our destination and toy drop-off point this year will be the parking lot @ An Cuisine located at 2800 Renaissance Park Place (intersection of Weston Parkway and Harrison Ave.)

    Follow the hand-over of toys to the Durham Rescue Mission, we will be having lunch at Bella Mia (Home Page) again this year…just a short walk across the parking lot.

    - The Durham Rescue Mission will have their truck there and will have donation receipts available if you need / want one.

    ** I will bring maps for our drive **

    For those in the Cary / Apex / Holly Springs / Fuquay area, we will be meeting @ Leith VW at 9:00AM, departing there around 9:20.

    A very sincere "thank you!" to everyone in advance for helping with this toy drive! We look forward to seeing everyone out there! You guys are awesome!

    Merry Christmas! Greg

    Greg it's great that you continue to organize meets like this for such a good cause. Not sure if I can make it to Brier Creek (very long drive for me) but I will try to at least swing through the parking lot at An to check out the lineup. Here's to hoping the weather will be better than last year!

    All...the forecast for Saturday is a 70-80% chance of rain. So, after much thought, we are going to move the toy drive to the following Saturday, December 13th. Same time, same arrangements, etc.
