The Marin County Sheriff’s Office is hosting a pre-holiday celebration and toy give-away at the Southern Marin (Marin City) Substation on Dec. 19, and at the West Marin (Pt. Reyes) Substation on Dec. 21.
The day is a fun experience where children (ages 2-12) can visit a “Big Guy in a Red Suit,” take a photo and receive a gift. The first toy give-away started in 2008.
The sheriff’s department said on social media that the Marin County Sheriff’s Office is committed to being in partnership with our communities during this season of giving and as such, we are asking Marin County businesses and residents to donate an unwrapped toy to the Marin County Sheriff’s Office for the celebration. Toys can be dropped off at the following locations:
– Sheriff’s Main Office, 1600 Los Gamos Dr #200, San Rafael
– Southern Marin Substation, 850 Drake Avenue, Marin City
– Point Reyes Substation, 101 4th St, Point Reyes
The department is looking for toys that are inclusive and boost self-esteem. Some toy suggestions are books, dolls of all nationalities, sports equipment, board games or gift certificates for our older children. Toy donations will be collected from now through December 18th at the locations listed above.
Toy Give Away Locations will be Dec. 19 at the Marin City Substation, 850 Drake Ave. in Marin City from 2:30 – 4:30 p.m. and on Dec. 21 at the Point Reyes Substation, 101 4th St., Point Reyes, from 2:30 – 4:30 p.m.
