A carnival to support Toys for Tots is scheduled for July 16th to 20th in the parking lot at 3028 10th Ave S. Entry to the event is free, and wristbands for rides will be available for $35. Thursday is designated as “Buddy Day,” offering half-price wristbands, making it a fantastic opportunity for families to enjoy games, prizes, rides, and delicious food while contributing to a great cause.

The Dreamland Carnival Company will introduce exciting new rides that have never been seen before. Additionally, food trucks will be on-site, and a percentage of all carnival sales will go directly to Toys for Tots. There will also be designated toy donation boxes at the carnival if you choose to bring toys for donations.

Toys for Tots has greatly increased its impact, serving 7,200 children last year compared to 2,400 just two years ago, with hopes to reach even more children this year. The organization collects toys throughout the year to ensure a joyful Christmas for children of all ages, including teens. Toys for Tots gathers toys year-round and stores them in storage units, with hopes of acquiring a warehouse to accommodate their storage needs.

Also on July 17th, the Eagles Lodge at 1501 9th St S will host an all-day luau. During this event, Toys for Tots will distribute leis for donations, and attendees can participate in raffles. Cascade County Sheriff Jesse Slaughter will make an appearance in a dunk tank, adding to the festive atmosphere.

Bring your family and friends and enjoy several days of fun while helping support Toys for Tots.
