ANYONE Interested in a TOY FOR TO RUN along with doing the christmas parade

I would like to, that would be cool

ya i think doing the christmas parade would be great!!!! Whos FJ was at the vetrans parade? We could dress it up as a sleigh!!!

It was Professor JK OLD MAN AWSM FJ

Ok well i have an idea for the parade. What if we dress up the FJ as a sleigh since its the biggest vehicle basically and we can have kids dressed up as elves inside and you could be dressed up as santa. All of us jeeps could dress them up as reindeer and be "pulling" the Sleigh.

We were talking about getting a hummer as the sleigh and having the Jeeps/FJ towing it! Considering we all drive Hummer recovery vehicles! LOL!!!

Sounds good! My friend Aaron suggested doing the toy run in Oildale. He said they had done the Toys for Tots in Bako and the bikes are the highlight and any car clubs get left out of any mention and are not allowed into the fairgrounds. He is working on getting the info for me.

I also know a few people in the media and we were talking about having a "Stuff the 4X4's" promo for people to donate toys! What does everyone think of that idea? Who is in? How many vehicles want to participate?

The Santa idea would be great for the toy run but in the Christmas parade the rules state that there is only one Santa so we could only have elves. I have the info on who to contact for the Christmas parade and will be getting in touch with her.

Ok, I just called the lady for the Christmas parade and we missed the deadline for this year. It was Nov. 2nd. We also would have had a problem as "car clubs" were only allowed 5 vehicles! What BS!

Lets all focus on the Toys for Tots run! How many people are interested? If we do the stuff the 4X4 promo would you be able to leave your vehicle out somewhere for a day? I am also going to get prices on a banner for us. What design would look best, a square banner with the door sticker logo or a wide banner like the windshield sticker?

ok well what is your idea for the toys for tots run?

i think door sticker

Count me in. I vote for the wider banner.

It has to do with the number of post not your actual join date.

00TJ, Curt is 100% correct on that one.

BUMP BUMP BUMP Lets not drop the ball on this one

i agree, do we contact the marines?

so im still a little lost. What exactly would we be doing?

Does anyone have any details on this yet?

I am still trying to find info on the Oildale toy run anybody know who I could contact about it?

ok what do we do on a toy run???

I'm not sure what we do either. Maybe if someone knows anyone involved in the toy run the bikers do we can get some ideas.

The Toy Run is a toy donation drive for children that are less fortunate.

I have done the Motorcycle one before it is a nice event but I have heard from other car groups that it is really only geared toward motorcycles. I have heard that there is another toy run through Oldale that is geared more toward auto clubs.

My idea is to team up with some people in the media and see about having a big promotion i.e. "Stuff the 4x4" or something of the like. When I am in town these next few days I am going to contact the people I know and see how possible something like this will be.

I have a ulgy old 1986 chevy that we can park any place you want to and we can put stickers and banners on it if that works for you just let me know.

Ok im still lost. What exactly happens with this?
