Largest ‘Cruise-Thru’ Toys For Tots Collection Drive Comes To Long Island

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Councilman Tom Hand recently announced that the town’s massive ‘Cruise-Thru’ Toys for Tots Collection Drive will take place at John Burns Park in Massapequa on Saturday, Dec. 3, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. (rain date is Sunday, Dec. 4). In partnership with the United States Marine Corps and Optimum, the Town is collecting toys to help families and those less fortunate throughout the community during the upcoming holiday season. In addition to the ‘Cruise-Thru’, collection boxes are located at town facilities through Dec. 14.

Saladino said, “The Toys for Tots Drive has long been a huge success under the leadership of the U.S. Marine Corps, especially here in the Town of Oyster Bay, as just last year we collected over 20,000 toys for Long Island children. I encourage all of our residents who are able to donate to this amazing cause, as the Toys for Tots Drive helps ensure that disadvantaged children within our community do not have to go the holiday season without something to bring them happiness.”

The ‘Cruise Thru Holiday Toy Drive’ will provide residents an excellent way to contribute directly to the cause and help bring a smile to a child’s face this holiday season. Additionally, the event will feature an appearance by Santa Claus, and a drop box where kids can drop their letters to Santa off at. Letters dropped off with a legible name and return address will be answered by Santa before the holiday.

“Toys for Tots sends a message of hope to less fortunate children who otherwise wouldn’t be receiving presents this holiday season,” Hand said. “I urge residents, who can, to donate new unwrapped toys to any of our drop-off locations. By making a donation, you can help ease the financial burden of families hardest hit by the effects of the coronavirus this holiday season.”

Toys for Tots Collection Boxes are located at the following locations:

Oyster Bay Town Hall North, 54 Audrey Ave., Oyster Bay;

Town Hall South, 977 Hicksville Rd., Massapequa;

Ice Skating Center at Bethpage Community Park, 1001 Stewart Ave., Bethpage.
