Bristol Marine at The Shipyard in Boothbay Harbor welcomed the public for two nights in December to host a holiday toy drive and open house. Partnering with Toys for Tots, the event aimed to support the charity's local chapter.
Guests toured the facility in exchange for a toy or cash donation. Thanks to the generosity of Bristol Marine employees, friends, and customers, the event raised $130 and collected over 100 toys. Bristol Marine gave a special 'thank you' to Mark Gimbel and the Smiling Cow gift shop for their contribution of more than 50 toys to the drive.
"Thanks to everyone who helped spread holiday cheer to those in need!" said Dennis Gunderson, Bristol Marine general manager.
