 ScoutToy Barrel
at
Roaring Rock Restaurant

 Thanks
to everyone, the donors, the Scouts, Jeff and Ken for their
great support for kids.
The 2009 Toy
Barrel was a great success. |
For the last 21 years it’s been
almost the same …
 The
Christmas Toy Drive, under the guidance of Boy scout troop # 157 –
Washington, NJ … has placed a ‘toy barrel’ in our lobby on the day after
Thanksgiving.
It never fails …
this little known and isolated restaurant has, without a doubt, the greatest
out pouring of children’s toys from our customers to be seen anywhere in
this county and every year it gets better ! The barrel overflows and toys
are stacked on the floor and up the walls of the lobby.
We even have a
“Secret Santa” for all these years – an anonymous
husband and wife from Belvidere who have no children of their own but
throughout the year purchase an occasional toy or game in anticipation of
our toy barrel.
We never see them when they arrive or depart but we know they’ve visited by
the “bags” of the most wonderful gifts that they leave !
It’s customers like this that make this old place exactly what it is ……..
“a little
special”.
“This is a real
human interest story … and someone should come here and photograph this
‘outpouring’ of kindness with our lobby overflowing with toys !”
