REMINDERS:
Toys for Tots at RBS
RHYTHMICS kicked off its TOYS FOR TOTS collection during their
rehearsal this week. TOYS FOR TOTS is a well-known charity run by
the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve. We hope to collect more than 500 toys
before our Winter Concert, which is scheduled for December 3rd.
Until that day, boys, girls and Riddle Brook community members are asked to
deposit new, unwrapped toys in the big boxes located in the halls and in the
music room at school. Through our generosity, the holidays will be filled
with happiness for boys and girls who need our help!
