Wyckoff Fire Department, Lion's Club Team Up for Toys for Tots

The Toys for Tots Train is scheduled to arrive in Wyckoff on Dec. 8.

Fire Chief Mike Rose and members of the Wyckoff Volunteer Fire Department, in conjunction with the Wyckoff Lion’s Club, are helping to bring the Toys for Tots Train to Wyckoff on Saturday, Dec. 8.

On board that special train will be members of the United States Marine Corps and Santa Claus, who will stop to collect gifts for the Corps' Toys for Tots Foundation. Their mission is to collect new, unwrapped toys during November and December each year and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children.
