Holiday Toy Drive

November 15 - December 15

Help the Calaboose Museum spread joy this holiday season by donating toys for local children!

PROGRAM DETAILS

Our Toy Drive will begin on November 14th by collecting toys around San Marcos and will culminate in a Holiday Celebration on December 19th.

 

This program will provide presents and holiday cheer to families who may need some help this year. In addition to gifting toys, the December 19th celebration will invite selected children (ages 1-12) and their families to the Cephas House, where they can visit Santa and enjoy activities such as building their own snowman and decorating cookies.
