Hi,
I'm Julia Sayre and I'm a current 8th Grader here at the Oak Bluffs School and I have organized a toy drive for the Holidays. There is a box in the school lobby, wrapped in holiday paper for you to put the toys you would like to donate in. All the toys donated are going to go to the Red Stocking Fund, so they will need to be unwrapped and new in their packaging. The toys can be for kids of any ages. The box will be in the lobby for one week starting today until next Friday, December 7th. Please try to bring in a toy!! Thank you and have a great weekend. CHRISTMAS IN EDGARTOWN
