LIBERTY, NY (November 20, 2012) – The 2012 Toys for Tots Kick-Off Event for Sullivan County, NY was held on Saturday, November 17 at the M&M Auto Group in Liberty.

Santa Claus was there and, along with country star Jimmy Wayne, the Hilltop Elves, and several members of the Marine Corps League, they accepted new unwrapped toys for the Toys for Tots campaign. 

A joint project of M&M Auto Group, Thunder 102 Radio and Hilltop Homes of Monticello, the afternoon saw the showroom transformed by the Hilltop Elves into a holiday wonderland with special trees on display.

Each tree is available for an adoption donation of $250. The donated monies will go to Sullivan County CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates). The tree (with toys included will go to a needy family. For more information on how to adopt a tree, call Thunder 102 at 845-292-7535.

M&M Auto Group will continue to be a Toys for Tots drop-off point. Other collection points are listed here: 2012 Toys for Tots Drop-Off Locations.
