The event will be on Dec. 6 with breakfast and entertainment on the stage from 7 to 9 a.m., though toys can continue to be dropped off at the school office until 4 p.m.

Community members are asked to bring an unwrapped present that will be distributed to non-profit groups who will ensure every child in our community has something under their tree. In exchange for each unwrapped present, the Penticton Secondary cafeteria program is preparing a breakfast for the donor. Additional breakfasts will be available for purchase (minimum $5 donation per breakfast).

This event is being organized by student leaders along with local service groups and clubs.
