Town Sponsors  Toys-for-Tots  Drive 

The  Town of Leesburg in partnership with the Marine  Corps League of Loudoun 
County, Detachment #1205, is sponsoring a  Toys-for-Tots drive from November  
26th to December 18th. 
The toys collected are for  distribution to the disadvantaged children within 
the Northern Virginia area. The Town has placed receptacles  for the toys at 
Town Hall (25 West Market  Street), the Leesburg Police  Department (65 Plaza 
Street, NE), the Leesburg Executive  Airport (1001  Sycolin Road, SE) and the 
Ida Lee Park Recreation  Center (60 Ida  Lee Drive).  All fire stations in 
Loudoun County will also serve  as collection points.      
Toys  that are donated should be for children ages 1-12 and should be new  
and unwrapped. 
This year is the  60th anniversary drive for the Toys-for-Tots program.  Last 
 year, the Loudoun County Detachment of the Marine Corps League brought in 
16,000  toys and served over 6,000 children in Loudoun, Fairfax, Arlington, and 
two  sites in West  Virginia.  This year the Detachment is a designated  Local 
Coordinating Organization (one of 600 in the US) and have assumed most of the 
mission of the  Marine Reserve unit based in Quantico, as this  unit will be 
en-route to Iraq in December.
