    Who: FCA & Ferrari Chat Members
    What: Annual Toy Drive
    When: Saturday December 16th 9am start time
    Where:     Starting point will be Boardwalk Ferrari 6300 International Parkway Plano TX 75093
    Etc: It's that time of year again, where FCA & FC members and their guests come together to collect toys for the Collin County Children's Advocacy Center! All we ask is that you bring at least one unwrapped new toy to the starting point ( or a car load, whichever you prefer! )

    We will meet up for coffee and snacks as everyone arrives Saturday morning. We will have a quick toy run meeting and pass out directions for this years rally.

    Other car clubs and friends are invited to participate, the more the merrier! Have them post up or reach out to let us know they are coming!

    Here are some links to actual wish lists separated by age groups:

    I'm in and I will let ICCNT, the Alfa and Fiat clubs know as well. Thank you again for the hard work that goes into this. Here are some photos I took at the end of last year's event.

    The countdown is down to just over a week to go. This is on the event list for ICCNT, the DFW Fiat Club and also the various Alfa Romeo clubs. Hopefully we will get a good turnout from our members and friends.

    Thanks again Steve for putting this together and Boardwalk for hosting us at the start.

    I'll admit that it's remarkably easy to just order things from the wish lists and have them sent directly to the CCCAC. Now I don't have to make a trip to the store! :)

    That's the idea. While its always nice to have some toys, as long as the kids are taken care of, that's what matters.
    We added a donation link to this years gala auction, we are expecting to make a nice cash donation too!
    Thank you for being a part of all of these years events Jim!

    I truly appreciate the offer but this is an irreconcilable conflict. Enjoy!

    RAIN RAIN GO AWAY.....

    Tomorrow is a rain or shine event, the kids need us regardless of the weather.
    ( You may drive another car if the weather is not working with us )

    See you in the morning!

    Steve

    Hint: Keep your toys in your car, one of your stops is the drop off point!

    I had a brief moment of panic tonight when I realized I hadn’t been to the store to buy presents!

    Oh yeah, thanks Amazon! :D

    Great time today, thanks Steve for organizing. I was genuinely stunned at the number of toys the cccac had acquired. Wow. Made me feel like I didn't send enough! 1400 families will benefit.

    I was the lucky driver that won the "drive the FF" prize when I stopped at DeVance for one of my Xmas pictures. Thanks Matt!
