County and Marines team up to collect Toys for Tots

FALLBROOK – Local residents can help the US Marine Corps and San Diego County put smiles on the faces of less fortunate children this holiday season by donating new, unwrapped toys at County airports including the Fallbrook Airpark during the Marines’ annual Toys for Tots campaign.

Residents can drop off their donated toys Fallbrook Airpark until Dec. 11. Uniformed Marines plan to collect the toys in person there from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 11. People who come that day will be able to see Marine Corps vehicles, and private aircraft, on the ground and in flight.

Last year, San Diego County residents’ donations at the airports filled six 7-ton trucks. For more information, contact Bo Donovan at (760) 787-1523.
