Toy Run set Oct. 6 in Spring Valley to collect gifts for children for Christmas

Cost of participation is $15 or an unwrapped toy

Bikers made a 36-mile journey on Saturday to benefit Project Success of Eastern Bureau County. The event, spearheaded by Drew Faletti of Spring Valley, asked for new, unwrapped toys or $10 per person to be donated to Project Success, which will benefit children in grades kindergarten-eighth. Faletti said he hoped around 40 bikes would participate and to raise more money and toys than last year’s run, which raised $1,400 and 200 toys. — The eighth annual Toy Run, an all-vehicle event to gather Christmas gifts and toys for underprivileged children, is scheduled to begin at noon Sunday, Oct. 6, at Blue Collar Bikes, U.S. 6, Spring Valley.
