WHAT A TURN OUT!!!!! The D/FW car community never fails to amaze me on these Toy Runs but I believe you guys out did yourselves this year. Not only did we collect a huge amount of toys but we also collected a large amount for the Collin County Children's Advocate. I printed 100 maps and had 1 test print map we gave all of those away. In addition Carolyn and I were in the very last group and we picked up a couple of very late arrivals just prior to leaving, so I figure we ended up with about 105 cars on the run. In addition to this where as we have always been intra-regional this year we had a participant come from south Texas. But even more surprising is that this year we had a couple come from Dodge City, Kansas to help us out with the toy donation and my very sincere thanks to Denny and Kay Deaver for making the trip and making the D/FW-FCA Toy Run Interstate! From Carolyn and I our sincerest thanks to all of you for your generosity. You have brought happiness to people we will never know! God Bless all of you and our wishes for a very Merry Christmas!
And many thanks to you and the sponsors for hosting a wonderful event. I am glad I got my ass out of bed early enough to be a part of it!
I forgot to mention that when I took my son back to get his truck, I found a toy laying in the grass on the South side of the street, a little East of RAC. It was a Thomas the Tank Engine puzzle and crayon set. I figured somebody moved stuff around in their car and forgot to put it back, or was unloading to drop off donations at RAC and forgot to pick it up. I brought the toy to my office and donated it to the toy drive there. Whoever lost it should know it went to a kid in need!
That was mine, thanks! Car had issues day of so I missed the run but I brought the DD to the meet to drop the toy off.
