Toy Drive
The Woodstock fire departments held their annual Toy Drive Nov. 11. Collections of toys and funds, held at the Woodstock Volunteer Fire Association and Thompson’s Community Fire Department, pulled in about $9,000 and 1,000 toys. Russ Downer said the effort, in its 18th year, has garnered, before this year’s tally, $127,000 in monetary donations and 43,000 toys. The donated toys and money go to TEEG, the Putnam Family Resource Center and the Eastford school system. Following tradition, the Woodstock football team members climbed off the bus on their way to Saturday’s football game to each donate a toy.
