Come behold a fantastic, warm, winter sight as the Silver Spur Toy Ride kicks off it’s annual event this Sunday, Nov. 18. In past years, up to 40 horses and riders have donned Christmas attire and paraded through the streets of Parksville, collecting toys for families in-need. The gifts help stock the SOS Toy Shop, where low-income parents, caregivers and grandparents can shop for free. Join in the fun this Sunday. New, unwrapped gifts are gratefully accepted to help stock the SOS Toy Shop, or just come cheer the riders on!

For 5 years, SOS and Haven Society have been taking care of women and children who are fleeing abuse in this region.
