Toys for Tots Drive with Local Jeep Club
C
arolina Wings Management’s Buffalo Wild Wings® in Wilmington, North Carolina, hosted its second annual Toys for
Tots Drive Saturday, Dec. 6, with local Jeep Club, the Carolina
Trail Stalkers.
The Carolina Trail Stalkers is a club of Jeep owners
throughout the Wilmington area who, like the Buffalo Wild
Wings® brand, have a passion to be involved with charitable
causes throughout the year.
Filled with toys and competitive spirit, the Jeeps gathered
before the front of store #3532 around noon. Each vehicle
donned its finest holiday apparel, ready to be crowned bestdressed. The competition was fierce this year and out of 50
Jeeps, the panel of local celebrity judges were tasked with
choosing just three to receive trophies and gift cards.
Everyone who donated toys earned a raffle ticket for a
chance to win a 40”flat-screen TV and Buffalo Wild Wings®
gift cards donated by owner, Larry Alderson. Local radio and
news stations even got in on the action and followed the event
throughout the day.
For the second year in a row, the event was a great success.
More than 600 toys were donated within a 45-minute span and
Carolina Wings Management surprised Toys for Tots with an
additional contribution of 50 bicycles and helmets. A five-ton
military truck was needed to cart the toys off to children in
need, just in time for the holidays. S
