Hello DCAWD!

Remember me? haha... its been quite some time since I have been over here. Been extremely busy with work along with other things. I hope all of you are well! Two years back we did an ECE Toys for Tots Charity Event, I'm sure some of you will remember.

We have gone through some changes with the site and are now AbsolutelyDriven.com
I have organized another Toys for Tots event and hope this can be an annual event from now on. I encourage ALL OF YOU to please come out again this year. Help us out for a good cause! Same location. Please post if you can attend, I will keep the first post updated the best I can.

I hope this years event will be even bigger and better. We will have all makes/models out there Imports and Domestics. There will also be a peoples choice car show, awards, and free food! Hope to see everyone out there :D

Julian... I hope this is ok posted here. If it is not, please feel free to move it.

-Robert

Awesome, it would be great to see you out there.

All of you who came out to the last one, I really look forward to seeing all of you again this year.


Also, if anyone knows any other sites they can post this info on, please let me know! We have our members actively posting everywhere and we are keeping a list of sites already posted on. We are keeping a list so that we do not create double threads. All make/models welcome, even bikes. The more attendants the more toys for unfortunate kids :D

Anyone that wants to donate a toy but can't make the show can pass them to Julian or I and we'll get them there.

If I'm here, I'll be there, but right now it looks like I will be out of town.

I can still give NIB items to those who say they are going.

Question: Are there any size, weight, or price restrictions to the toys we can bring?

Why? You planning on something that needs the trailer or the truck to deliver it?

haha... the only policy that I saw was one new and unopened toy and it cannot be wrapped! I guess if you bring something they cannot accept, they will turn it away right then and there. :mrgreen: No sex toys please :lol:

I already had someone ask :roll:

Those of you who made it out, Thank you so much. The event unfortunately ended early around 3 because it was sooo cold. Despite the cold weather, we had an EXCELLENT Turnout and collected a lot of toys. Thank you again. Next year it will be a little earlier in the year. Either late november or early december. Hopefully it will be a bit more warm.

Hey Robert!
Sorry I didn't make it :( We (Gabe, Darrin, Jason and myself) were all out tuning Gabe's car, which took a lot longer than expected :(

No problem Julian. Hopefully you can make it next year. Next year will be earlier and warmer hopefully. 3

Hope the tuning went well and I hope to make it out to another DCAWD meet soon.
