Over ten thousand toys were distributed among Puerto Vallarta's needy children last week year thanks to Toys for Tots. A hundred volunteers met early at Marriot CasaMagna to culminate the efforts of months of preparation. The delivery coincided with Mexico's traditional day of giving, Three Kings Day, and included hot cocoa for everybody and a piece of rosca de reyes, a special type of bread offered on this holiday.

Boxes full of balloons, dolls, stuffed animals and other toys were collected during the recent 8th Annual Golf Tournament and Gala Dinner Awards sponsored by CasaMagna Marriot Resort and a number of local agencies. Volunteers delivered toys in several areas around the bay, including Cabo Corrientes, El Tuito, Boca de Tomatlán, Mismaloya, Las Mojoneras, Las Palmas, San Sebastian, Mezcalitos, Sayulita and La Peñita.
