YEP. THAT’S RIGHT! SUNDAY DEC. 4th 12:00pm AT PACIFIC RACEWAYS( http://www.pacificraceways.com ). DROP OFF TOYS AND ENJOY THE PEOPLE AND CARS. LAST YEAR WAS AT THE EXTREME. OVER 1300 CARS. LOTS OF FUN, AND LOTS OF TOYS. WANNA MAKE THIS EVENT SO LARGE WE WILL HAVE TO HAVE THE TACOMA DOME IN A FEW YEARS. LOOKS LIKE IT’S GETTING THERE SO LETS GET IT GOING!!!
This is going to be another BIG ONE. I want to see everybody there. I mean everybody. This is for the CHILDREN that are less fortunate. I don’t care what you bring, a hot wheel or a stuffed animal. Just an unopened toy. This will show the community that People DO CARE. This will be an open forum event. I will post on other forums. Feel free to post on others also. YOU NEED TO BE AT THIS ONE! LETS MAKE SOME KIDS HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS!

Is up but still being worked on.
I HOPE TO SEE EVERYBODY , I MEAN EVERYBODY who has ever looked at this page to attend. As you can tell last years was AWESOME and this years will be better!!!!!!!!! This will be on a Sunday and even in the after noon so NO EXCUSES! HA HA HA!!!!
The last few years we have been meeting up and driving as together as we could. Proved to be very difficult and time consuming. This year you can do one of two things, meet as your own groups and roll up together ( most do this already) or just show up. Either way you will be part of history. See you there!

Is anyone planning a meet up location prior to the Toy Run this year?

Last year we met at the 272nd Park and Ride beforehand. Anyone up for it?

WOW, 1 week left. I want to THANK Pacific Raceways for letting us use their facility and all the work they put into this event. Toyota of Kirkland, Lexus of Bellevue for all the support and the treats they bring. PSTOC for their die hard support of this event. NW Auto Events for supplying the nwtoyrun stickers. And ALL of you for showing up to support the CHILDREN for this event.
I will have some important information to share for the growth of future events this year. So please everyone have a great time and enjoy yourselves. Can't wait to see you all! And please visit the Facebook page and show your support https://www.facebook...86873294720681/

Have any improvements to the entrace of the area been made this year? Last year it was a disaster with a line of cars going all the way to the freeway. It took forever to get to the front only to find out that 90% of the people didn't have toys and were being stopped to pay money instead (meaning I was waiting in line for no reason). It was such a mess I said I wasn't ever going again, which is unfortunate.

Remember to make sure you have your toy to show at the front entrance in order to make the line flow good this year. The easier we make it for Pacific Raceway the more they will support this event. And PLEASE be respectful of their property and everybody else. I would also like to thank www.ticketgangsta.com for helping the future of NW TOYRUN in incorporating to build this event larger. See you all Sunday!!!!!

You missed out, I showed up maybe 10 minutes before noon, I was in line and through the gate in 5 minutes. Regardless if there had been a line, it was for a great cause. Maybe next time.

Unfortunately I turned out to have other things going on that day. Maybe next year. I'm glad to hear it was better than last time.
