Amador County - The California Highway Patrol is once again partnering with the Calaveras County Santa’s Express Program for the 12th Annual CHiPs for Kids Toy Drive.

This is a wonderful opportunity for schoolchildren and members of the community to collect and donate new, unwrapped toys for hospitalized and disadvantaged children. The collected toys will then be delivered to the Santa’s Express Program.

Collection barrels are at the California Highway Patrol Office in San Andreas, the CHP/Sheriff Sub-Station in Arnold, Albert Michelson Elementary in Murphys, Mark Twain Elementary in Angels Camp, Copperopolis Elementary in Copperopolis, San Andreas Elementary in San Andreas, and Jenny Lind Elementary and Toyon Middle School in Valley Springs.

Toys will be collected until Monday, December 20, 2010. They will then be delivered on Tuesday, December 21st to the San Andreas Town Hall for distribution.

With public help, they will be able to put smiles on countless young faces this holiday season. The CHP thanks you in advance for supporting the CHiPs for Kids Toy Drive.
