CHRISTMAS TOY RUN CANCELLED, BUT DONATIONS CONTINUE

The pandemic may have forced organisers to cancel the Salvation Army’s ‘Bikers for Kids’ toy run this year, but donations have still been piling up at the Wickham Park Hotel this weekend.

It’s the first time in more than 40 years the annual ride has been called off.

Regardless, volunteers hope to collect around $30,000 worth of toys to distribute to families in need.
