LAKE COUNTY – The 17th annual Lake County Toy Run takes place this Sunday, Dec. 6, circling Lake County to help gather toys for children in need.
The Toy Run departs the Kmart parking lot on S. Main Street at 11 a.m. Rider will travel around the lake, with the run ending at the Kelseyville Lions Club House on Sylar Lane in Kelseyville for a great barbecue lunch. Be a part of the solution to help our less fortunate Lake County Kids enjoy the Holiday.
A very generous Santa is paying for the lunch on Sunday, Dec. 6, for everyone who participates in and donates a new toy for the event. Prior to doing this, it would have cost everyone $10 per person.
Santa, in recognition of these strained economic times, wants to be sure folks help out our Lake County kids this year by donating as many toys as possible, so he's paying for the lunch.
All toy run participants (motorcycles, cars, trucks) check in at Kmart with the Clear Lake Road Riders on Sunday, Dec. 6, in the parking lot, where registration opens at 9 a.m.
There are discount coupons for all registered participants, to buy their toys and cash donations are welcome also.
