MONTICELLO, NY (November 29, 2013) – On Saturday, November 23 the 3rd Annual “Where You’re Going Event” was held at Monticello Casino & Raceway.

Featuring Jason Casterlin, Barry & Ken Somerville and Jimmy Wayne, admission to the event was a new unwrapped toy for the local Toys for Tots campaign sponsored by M&M Auto Group and Thunder 102 radio as “No Child in Thunder Country Should be Without a Toy for the Holidays.” Donations for Sullivan County CASA were also being collected. Performer Jimmy Wayne is the national spokesperson for CASA or Court Appointed Special Advocates.

Accepting the toys in the Casino lobby were a small group of Marines and members of the Marine Corps League Catskill Detachment 652.

The event raised close to $300 in cash for CASA and collected nearly 400 toys for children who would otherwise be without one for the 2013 holiday season. To contribute to CASA call 845-807-0672. New unwrapped toys can be dropped off at any of the locations listed here: Toys for Tots drop-off locations.
