Default Toys for Tots Meet

I was thinking we are all luckily to have 350z and g35's but there are some people out there who are not as fortunate. What do you say we have a holiday meet in which we meet up at a USMC office and drop off a bunch of toys for tots? We can improve the image of 350z and spending $10 for a teddy bear or gi Joe can go to make some kids holiday much better. Lets not think about our selves and think of others...

I went to that toys for tot show last year and it was boring.

If you're looking to give back to the community in the form of toys, there is this meet http://www.motor4toys.com/ I went the last couple times and it's usually a good time. No lame **** car teams that show up trying to win trophies, but rather a gathering of simple car enthusiasts. This car meet brings out the exotics in groves along with some classics.

When I've gone before, I would do canyons in the early morning, check out the show, then do canyons some again afterwards with another group or catch lunch instead. This meet does take place right next to the malibu canyons so might as well take advantage. Probably won't go this year, but it's this sunday the 3rd for anyone interested.
