2011 News10NBC Pirate Toy Fund Toy Drive

Posted on by PTF


Now in its 12th year, the Pirate Toy Fund and News 10NBC will team up again November 28th through December 3rd to collect toys for local children in need.

Next week, stop by the Calkins Road Wegmans store in Henrietta and drop off a new, unwrapped toy. Gary the Happy Pirate will be joined by on-air personalities from News 10NBC, WARM 101.3, Fickle 93.3, Zone 94.1, and other special guests to collect your toys.

Daily throughout the week, we’ll update the official Fairport Savings Bank Toyometer with the results of your efforts. On Saturday, December 3, we’ll announce the grand total with a special Gary the Happy Pirate concert at the Strong National Museum of Play at 2pm! This year we’re shooting to collect 14,000 toys during the drive!

If you can’t make it to the Calkins Road Wegmans, but want to help, you can always drop off a new, unwrapped toy at all the area Wegmans stores, the Mall at Greece Ridge Center, Eastview Mall, Marketplace Mall, and the Strong National Museum of Play any time during the month of December.
