Toys For Tots/Photoshoot Meet - Dec 16th NoVA

Some of us wanted to do something nice for kids this holiday season, so we're hosting a meet at Nottoway Park in Vienna, VA on December 16th at 1pm to collect toys and take some nice pictures before winter weather rolls in. We'll have some photogs on hand to get everyone some pics of their ride. Hopefully a couple of models will be stopping by as well :thumbup:

Everyone is welcome to attend but we ask that you please bring a new, packaged toy to donate to TFT. It can be any type of non-religious toy and need not be large or expensive. Anything helps! Some of us will then take the toys to a drop-off center at the UPS Store up the road in Fairfax.

A great turnout is expected, and this is a good way to help kids during the holiday season :woot:



Nottoway Park and the Hunter House are located at 9601 Courthouse Road in Vienna. The park may be reached by taking Beltway Exit 49 (Route 66) west to exit at Route 243 or Nutley Street north. Turn left on Courthouse Road from Nutley Street and the park entrance will be on the left.

We are guests in the park, please behave responsibly.

jwannee84 I saw you driving on little river turnpike...your wheels look nice, the C class is super clean....I was in my 3.25Ci (beater)...

I might have to work on the 16th, i checked and I might be holding a seminar so may not be able to get out of it...

But we should get a bunch of benz people together locally for maybe drinks and fun...that following sunday...the 17th...

You can post a tread and we can see who wants to meet up, maybe a local TGI fridays etc....either VA or MD
