Stop by Walmart today to help Seminole Firefighters Local 2896 “Fill the Boat” collecting toys for children

On Saturday, December 11, 2020, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Seminole Fire Rescue and Local 2896 will be holding their 7th annual “Fill The Boat” toy drive campaign at the Bay Pines Walmart located at 10237 Bay Pines Boulevard to benefit the children of the Saint Vincent de Paul Center of Hope.

Seminole Fire Rescue District Chief Lance Volpe and his fellow firefighters ask you to come out and “Fill the Fire Boat” with toys for underprivileged children December 11th at the Walmart at Bay Pines.

The firefighters are asking residents to “Fill the Boat” with Holiday gifts.  If you would like to donate, bring an unwrapped toy to the Fire Boat located at the front of the store. The Local will also be accepting cash donations that will be used for purchasing gifts for the children.

In the past, the firefighters have collected well over $10,000.00 in donations and toys from residents, providing children in the area a happy holiday season.

Please come on out and help bring a child a Happy Holiday.
