Bikes, Trikes & Toys for Tots 2012 Toy Run

Each year we’re contacted by families who will have no toys for their children during Christmas. This year along with “Toys for Tots” we have decided to dedicate our toy run to these deserving families.

If you are a family in NWA who will have no toys for Christmas, please sign up here to receive some toys from Santa during our 7th annual Bikes, Trikes and Toys for Tots Toy Run event on Saturday, December 8th.

Due to limited space at our toy run destination we unfortunately can only accommodate 100 total children with 2 adults per family.

This event is open to children 12 years and younger only please.
