STAR'S ANNUAL TOY DRIVE

Pace Head Start School on December 22, 2011 was the next stop for the Senior Tour Auto Racers,as once more they made their  appearance to the Pace Head Start School in the city of New Bedford for their annual toy drive.  Children awaiting for Santa to come and give them a Christmas that they would not have had.  As Star’s Santa made his entry to each classroom followed by his elves with bags and bags of toys, smiles and tears of joy from so many children greeted him.   But because of the members of Star we were able to once more make the lives of these small children a dream come true.  Santa did not forget them this year!!  All year long Toy Drive Chairperson Tammy Barboza has been collecting toys and donations to buys toys to service about 150 children.  Tammy takes a list of names of the children and what they would like for Christmas.  She tries her hardest to appease most of them but most of the time is very easy.   Some will ask for a doll, a truck, or a game, but most of them just say anything Santa can bring.   Now even some of the Star members were asking for something special from Santa.  You know the old saying “All I want for Christmas is my front teeth” stated Star Elf Dwight Lowes.  He also wanted a bike, now we did not say what kind of bike, but we caught him in the hallways of the school with his new toy.  Then it was recess time for the Star members.  Star would like to thank the following for their support as being elves and helping with the toy drive.  Matthew Barboza, Michael Barboza, Charlie Lima, Mary Lima, Bill McAvoy, Kevin McCarthy, and Dwight Lowes.  A special thank you goes out to Dennis Lowes for once more playing Star’s Santa.  Thank you goes out to Bill & Eva McAvoy for making up special bags of toys and candy to hand out to each child.  A very special Thank You to the Star members would had a big heart and the thought of giving, you are all special.   It could not have happen with out your support.

Once all the clocks were passed out they were told to turn to the curtain behind then on the stage and when the curtain was drawn, behold stood the real awards.
