Tips For Tots Dec. 11 At The Greene Turtle Sports Bar And Grille

ANNAPOLIS, MD — Patrons at The Greene Turtle Sports Bar and Grille can enjoy a delicious meal out while helping local kids this holiday season. The 14th annual Tips for Tots will take place Dec. 11 where employees will pool together 100 percent of the tips they earn that day and purchase toys to donate to the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve's Toys for Tots campaign. The restaurant's corporate office will contribute $500 to each team that generates at least $1,000 in tips Dec. 11.

"Tips for Tots" was the idea of Corlie Brice, a bartender at The Greene Turtle in Salisbury. Brice noticed a sign on a nearby business that was serving as a Toys for Tots drop-off site. She felt compelled to take all of her tips from that day to purchase toys for the program. She also encouraged her coworkers to join her. That day, they generated $700 and went on a shopping spree to benefit local youth.
