It was a season of giving at the Boys & Girls Clubs of North County

FALLBROOK – The spirit of the holidays was in full swing at the Boys & Girls Clubs of North County, with community members, businesses and organizations all coming together to create a holiday season that none of their members would ever forget.

North Coast Church brought the excitement to the Ingold Clubhouse when they presented its members with 200 brand-new bikes and helmets! The children couldn't wait to test their new bikes on the club's backcourt.

North County Fire Protection District came ready to deck the halls with their antique fire truck filled with gifts they collected from their community toy drive.

Generous businesses like Fallbrook Sporting Goods, Fresco Grill and Vista Valley Country Club gathered support from community members to help fill toy boxes with new and unwrapped gifts for the children.

Not to be outdone, the ladies from the Women's Golf Club of California and the Fallbrook Women's Golfers brought their gifts in by the sleigh-full.

"I'm always amazed at the generosity of our community," said Allison Barclay, CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of North County. "It takes a village to support all of our 2000 members, and we are so grateful to the village of Fallbrook for their care and concern for our kids."

In total over 800 gifts were handed out to the nine different club sites throughout Fallbrook and on Camp Pendleton. Every member who attended one of the Club's holiday parties left with a gift provided by a caring member of the Fallbrook community.
