The food is purchased by the organizers of the event, but the toys come from the bikers.

The excitement at the Nevada County Fairgrounds was even greater as the bikes arrived and the families prepared to receive their gifts.

ELAINE DAVIDSON!
What a great event, too bad there are some RUDE people that just had to cut in the middle with their cars, causing alot of the cycles to get left way behind & one was even a Sherriff's car, bet these rude people didn't even have any toys for the kids, there are always those few that ruin it for everyone else but is still a great event, thank you Toy Run, you people & Tom are so awesome, you make the world a better place!
