Thumbs up Toy Drive & Ride

Since the holidays are around the corner and many people are out of work, what do you think about having a Rhino Addiction toy drive and ride event. We could have a ride in Silverwood or Bartsow and everybody bring a toy that we can donate to a charity to help the less fortunate this year. This could be an early December ride. What do you think?

I have never been involved in something like this before so I don't have any charities in mind. If we get enough people involved we can give some children a better Christmas. If anybody has any charities in mind, please get involved.

Sure we can, I'm up for it. I'm not sure how we would go about picking a charitie? I have a few that I have donated to befor and have made a few Toy runs with the Harley group, I will give this some more thought and in the mean time your welcome to take the lead on this one

I was thinking of a one day ride since between Thanksgiving and Christmas things get kinda crazy for a trip, atleast for me.
