Toys for Tots was the focus of the Marco Island Yacht Club Holiday Party on December 7th. Club Members purchased gifts and brought them to the event to fill the Toys for Tots collection boxes. Members who could not attend the event donated over $2,000 towards the purchase of additional toys to support the collection efforts. Santa was on hand to thank everyone who contributed the toys that overflowed the collection boxes. Partygoers enjoyed a special holiday meal and were entertained by Yacht Club members Linda and Alan Sandlin, who performed holiday songs and led a sing-along.
The Toys for Tots collection is just one part of the Marco Island Yacht Club’s Community Outreach efforts. Club members donate to Our Daily Bread Food Pantry during the holidays and throughout the year. The Yacht Club also supports the Marco
Island Community Sailing Center.
