Annual Kiwanis Toy Run helping Kamloops community come Christmastime
KAMLOOPS — Bikers have always been portrayed in popular culture as bad hombre, outlaws who live outside society’s rule; if Sunday’s Kiwanis Toy Run was any indication, the bikers in our community and region have big hearts and are willing to help those in need.
Sunday’s sunny skies proved to be the perfect start to the 15th annual Kiwanis Toy Run, an event that brings motorcycle riders together from across the region to take part in a ride that raises funds and collects toys for Christmas Amalgamated and the Salvation Army.
“It’s a tough world out there, so it’s a good thing we’re all coming together to help raise some toys and some donation for all the children,” Bikers Against Bullying’s Jake Currie told CFJC Today.
