The Toy Run to Hershey Children's Hospital is on Sat November 5. Please meet in the Sam's Club parking lot between 1130 and noon so you can get you assigned exit to block. Bob Truit will be the guy you need to see for this run. I hope you all can show up in force to help this great group of bikers deliver all the goodies to the children and their families. You are not required to have a Jeep or ride all the way to the hospital, just block the on ramps on the routes to the Hospital. No worries from about breaking laws all the local and state officers in the area know we do this every year. Thanks for all your help. Bikes leave the parking lot at 1 and its an awesome site!
Please post if you can help out

Thanks to everyone that helped out at this event, especially to Bob for heading this up for me while I am away wheeling. I heard there where 465 motorcycles, a little less then last year but a great turnout nevertheless. Thanks again guys!
-
It was a great day for the Toy Run! Nice weather and a pretty decent turnout. I hadn't done it before, so I didn't know what to expect. All in all, I'd say that it was very well organized! Bob T. let us all know what we had to do and the police escort came in handy. Thanks to all those who blocked ramps...you did a great job! We had a few people sneak in up around Hbg. but it wasn't a big deal.
As we went up the highway, we saw plenty of bikers and assorted other people standing by the highway taking photos and video and waving. Some were even standing on the Sinking Springs Ln. overpass waving the US flag--that was cool!
While we stood around talking in the parking lot, a man and woman came up to us. The gentleman asked us where to get a replacement floor pan for his Jeep. The woman later identified herself as David Milliken Derr Jr.'s mother. We all let her know that we were proud to be part of the event remembering David and helping all the children currently at Hershey Medical Center!
I saw a female reporter from FOX news walking around so I'm gonna watch it at 10 PM and see if there was coverage of the event.
I took a number of photos which I'll post as soon as Photobucket stops being wonky...
