PPNA and Pelham Parkway Vision Center Toy Giveaway

By Robert Press

Saturday December 17th the Pelham Parkway Neighborhood Association with the Pelham Parkway Vision Center held their Annual Neighborhood Toy Giveaway. Santa greeted some children outside the store as the line of children and their parents stretched for almost three blocks on Lydig Avenue. 

One by one the families entered the Pelham Parkway Vision Center to see Santa. They received a gender specific toy, had their picture taken with Santa, and received socks and glove on the way out by some of Santa’s helpers. Councilwoman Marjorie Velazquez and Assemblyman elect John Zaccaro Jr. joined the event after it started.

Inside the store there was a section where a Christmas tree was set up with over one hundred wrapped presents to be given out as the two boys are holding as they get their picture taken with Santa.

 

As you see in the photo, Councilwoman Marjorie Velazquez and Assemblyman elect John Zaccaro Jr. would join Santa in giving out the gifts.
