THE 26th Gippsland Motorcyclists Toy Run has been launched. Members of the Social Motorcycle Clubs, the Eastern Riders and the Red Knights, got together with Graham from the Salvation Army, Santa and Dave and Julz from Bobber Dave’s Custom Cycles, Traralgon, to launch toy run, signalling the start of what will hopefully be another great year. This year’s toy run will be held Saturday, December 6 which is the first Saturday of the month. Toy collection is set to commence in earnest. The motorcyclist clubs had thought the last couple of years were difficult enough for local families and that all would be better for 2025 – not so. The Salvos and St Vinnies have informed the club there are many more families struggling to make ends meet, and this will be reflected in the coming Christmas period. The challenge for the motorcycle clubs is to provide a cheerier Christmas, and is sure the Latrobe Valley community will, once more, rise to the occasion and make this year as successful as 2024, which saw a massive $101,500 worth of donations received. No mother in the region had to say to her kids that Santa might not be coming last year. Although Christmas is still many months away, it is never too early to start putting away a gift or two, or if you are a local business, start canvassing your fellow workmates about ways to gather toys. If you would just like to make a donation of toys, call Alf and Stella on 0434 618 689 and they will arrange to collect them. The club invites you to follow this year’s progress on the Facebook page: Gippsland Motorcyclists Toy Run.
