3rd Annual Toys 4 Tots Toy Drive

[SOCALFJ]

DECEMBER 12, 2009​

Well its that time a year again, or at least getting there. So im starting to plan out this years Toy Drive. It's our 3rd year for organizing this and we have donated to Toys 4 Tots and Spark of Love. This year we'll go ahead and rotate back to Toys 4 Tots again. I know this year has been tough for all of us with this terrible economy, but lets not make the kids suffer. Lets see if we can band together and do our part.

Post up that location when you know and if there's high fat food nearby , I'll be there.

How did I miss this over the last 6 days!

I don't see why I won't be their.... It's a good reason to get me up north to the Carlsbad Outlet mall for Christmas shopping.

 

[SOCALFJ]

Awesome guys, thanks for posting up! Brent you crack me up dude. It's a long ways off, but this gives people no excuse not to be there! We might even see Alan again! Who knows!

 

[Brentbba]

Brent you crack me up dude.

Got nothing else to do right now! Promised work and the that I wouldn't touch the work computer until at least Wednesday. By then, I'll have at least 300 emails to go thru.

I have nothing on the calendar right now for that date so I should be able to make it with a Trasharoo full of toys.

If I can't make it I'll give the toys to someone in SD to take.

 

[SOCALFJ]

Awesome! thanks Dan

Date looks good so far - other than being my mom's birthday. Depending on what we do for her, I'm in!

Interesting, my mother's BD too!

 

[socalrubi]

I'm in.

 

[SOCALFJ]

Updated with location and time!

 

[Brentbba]

About an hour's drive from south OC? Figure I can still get in my round of golf by noon and still make it out to Pomona in time.

Is there a category for filthiest rig? In cruiserdan fashion, the trip don't count if the rig ain't dirty a week later and the rig is still filthy from SnT!

 

[SOCALFJ]

Meh, maybe 45 mins... but we are usually there all day BS'ing about rigs and such. Most filthiest? lol

Hope you can come Brent, it will be good to see you.

 

[Brentbba]

I'll make it - unlike the offroad expo - no plans for another heart attack driving out to see you my friend!

 

[SOCALFJ]

Awesome!!!!!

 

[SOCALFJ]

Solder Joint just donated a box of 2 way FRS radios for the raffle! Very nice of them!

 

[Giulitto]

I am marking this in my calender and going to try and get out there this year.

 

[SOCALFJ]

Awesome Giulitto.. hope to finally meet you.

Bumpity Bump!

 

[Bluetribal]

I can not make it this year, I just found out that it's my company Christmas Party that day and it will be too stressful to go out of town and back for the party. But I promise to make a donation somewhere. And thanks for doing this Dave.
