The Head Shed Seeks Toys for Tots Donations

For the fifth consecutive year, The Head Shed will serve as an official drop-off location for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve’s Toys for Tots holiday toy drive.

 

“From now through mid-December, we will be accepting new, unwrapped toys at our shop at 969 Main Street in Walpole,” says owner Evie Saunders.  “The toys will then be sorted by volunteers and distributed as holiday gifts to needy children in our area.”
