NEWPORT-"Toys For Tots" volunteers are accepting donations
of money to buy toys, as well as toys in good shape, to help a needy child in
our community get at least one gift at Christmas.
The Newport Fire Department will accept monetary donations
or toys any time during the day at its main fire hall at 103 C Avenue. The
phone number is (423) 613-4047.
The toys will be distributed on a Saturday in December,
according to Fire Chief Randy Ragan.
Shawn Hudson, a firefighter and President of the Newport
Firefighters Association, is coordinating the local effort.
