HERNDON, VA — Visitors to Santa's Workshop at Woodland Park Crossing will have made lots of children happy this holiday season, thanks to their donations to the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation.

Property owners Rosenthal Properties placed collection bins at the center's Santa's Workshop for people to drop off new and unwrapped toys through last Sunday. The foundation will distribute the toys to children in need in the coming weeks.

This Saturday and Sunday are the final days for members of the public to reserve a visit to Santa's Workshop to take family photos or selfies. The workshop is offered as a safe holiday-themed backdrop during the coronavirus pandemic. Register online at https://bit.ly/3lyEdy0.
