Smiles make the greatest gifts.
It was an extra merry toy donation drive-through on December 4, powered by North American Coal!
We teamed up with the Salvation Army to collect Christmas toys for local families who cannot afford gifts. Not only did fans receive the joy of giving, but they also got to drive their way through our winter wonderland, and a limited edition Larks beanie!
In 2021, we stepped up our game. Better gift. More stations. Bigger celebration. Thanks to your generosity, we raised $1450 in the Salvation Army kettle! Fans donated 729 gifts in just 2 hours, helping over 250 families this year.
