Christmas is just around the corner and so is the annual Roundwood Solutions Limestone Coast Toy Run. Proudly presented by Baptist Care SA, the toy run has become a well-loved community tradition that raises money to buy Christmas gifts for local children and young people in need.<\/p>\n

Hundreds of motorbikes and vehicles will complete tours across the region before arriving at the Mount Gambier Railway Lands at 1pm on Saturday, October 29. The free community event will start from 12.30pm with music and entertainment, a live auction, market stalls and the Show \u2018n\u2019 Shine competition.<\/p>\n

The event has been well supported by local businesses, motorbike and car clubs, service clubs and community groups with more than $25,000 raised for gifts over the past three years.<\/p>\n

Marcus Leigh won the Runner Up Top Car Award at last year\u2019s event for his 1971 XY GT replica and he\u2019s keen to support the event again this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast year was the first time I entered and it\u2019s just a really good event \u2013 such a good day out with great people. It\u2019s tough now for everyone but I definitely think the community will be keen to get out there again and support the cause,\u201d Marcu said.<\/p>\n
