The Toy Drive was designed by a group of caring BIKERS, from C.M.A. Midnight Son Riders ch801, also other awesome motorcycle groups, and many local motorcycle shops around the Valley, and not forgetting the MANY other caring businesses that join the cause of The biker elves to help collect toys for all the different Christmas toy distribution places in the Valley.
Over the last many years, this cause has come down to only the TOYS FOR TOTS - Special Santa Program, because the others couldn’t continue running. And so has been strictly distributing the collected toys to the (Marines) TOYS FOR TOTS - Special Santa Program.
There have been a lot of different “special” events for the toy drive over the years, the biggest and the one that is still happening - the FLY IN SANTA at The Denali Harley Davidson shop. Every year we are collecting Christmas Toys for the BIKER ELVES DRIVE - through the event that brings Santa in his personal helicopter for all the children, and then will (as long as conditions are safe) give the kids rides in the helicopter over the Valley. And they get to visit with Santa, pictures and all, plus lots of door prizes for the grownups as well. There’s always good food, great laughter, and a “TOTALLY AWESOME” time for all.
And all it takes is the donation of some Christmas toys, by the parents - that will go to help other families with children in the Valley in need of Christmas gifts for their kids. This year, it will be Saturday, December 21st, from 11am-5pm. Please call DENALI HARLEY DAVIDSON for more details.
So, look us up on Facebook at “BIKER ELVES TOY DRIVE” for a distribution spot near you, and help give a special moment to a child for the Christmas season.
Thank you, and may Jesus bless and keep you and yours safe in all the years to come!
