Santa Helps Gather Toys For Tots
Posted December 8th, 2009 By Kelly Little-Cart | General News

On December 5th, Santa and Mrs. Claus joined forces with the United States Marine Corps to gather toys for the underprivileged children in the local community. Franklin Sussex Auto Mall teamed up with Wanamaker Photography to bring the event to the area. A new toy donation, valued at $10, was gratefully repaid with a beautiful, professional photo with the big guy…and this time it wasn’t Bill Snouffer! Santa and his lovely bride pulled up to the showroom in a red 2010 Dodge Challenger with a Hemi replacing the 9 reindeer-power motor they are used to. The Children smiled (well, not all of them) on Santa’s lap as the wish lists were heard. With neat and clean pictures out of the way it was time to enjoy the free BBQ. The Auto Mall’s last one of 2009. Then off they went to win a prize and make a christmas penguin with WSUS radio station. Some went right for the video game wall, which Bill Snouffer had set up for the day. And as the toy pile grew larger and larger, a bit of Holiday magic set in….it started to snow.
