To the Journal editor:

It is that time of the year again, the Marine Corps League Lake Superior Detachment #764 will be conducting its annual Toys For Tots Campaign starting Oct.1 and going through Dec.12.

Marquette County businesses will have toy donation box drop off sites for new, unwrapped toys or else a monetary donation can be sent to our local campaign by going to the www.toysfortots.org website for more information.

Marquette County residents, businesses and the veteran community last year helped over 1,350 children and we collected over 5,500 toys, stocking stuffers and books.

In this more challenging times we face, there will be a greater need this year. How successful we are in helping the community depends on you.

Please donate today. Our goal is simple .. .Toys … Kids … Christmas. Semper Fi.
