Toy show for BBBS this weekend

Posted Jan 26, 2012 By Jennifer Miller

Dear Editor:

Feel like a kid again, or show your children what you used to play with! Enjoy viewing and purchasing collectible toys and other treasures in Almonte this weekend.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County is hosting its annual Toy Show and Sale at the Almonte Civitan hall on January 28. It's the fifth year for this event, and hundreds of people attend each year - it's not to be missed!

Doors open at 9 a.m. and the show runs until 2 p.m.. It is only a one day show, so come early to ensure you're not disappointed.

All net proceeds from the Toy Show will be used to help fund mentoring programs through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County. Over 300 children each year benefit from these programs, and since the agency is not funded by the government, events such as this are critical to the agency's success.
