Nov-29-2009 We all did the Toy Drive at Walmart in Bristol from 9am to 3pm. It was a good day to collect toys it wasn't too cold and many people came into Walmart! Everyone came and was ready to collect toys, some girls had to make posters for the event while others decorated cans to collect monetary donations. Kalee our Miss Bristol made an awesome poster for the event, it was just in time for the holidays, it had Christmas lights decorated on it. Lots of families came out to ask us what we were doing which was very friendly on their part, and after hearing about the Toy Drive almost all donated any way they could. Along with toys, we collected a good amount of monetary donations to go inside Walmart (taking turns of course) to pick out toys to add into our collection of toys to donate. Plus we took out lollipops (dumdums) to hand to people walking in and out of Walmart, to make their day better and to thank them for their donation! So thank you to everyone who donated or spread the word because we collected over 400 toys to bring to charities. After the drive we brought the toys to my house to count them and arrange them. But before we arranged them we (Miss Bristol and her court) got covered in all of the toys, it was like toy Heaven!
