13th Annual Anderson County Toy Run 9 October 2004 loading pictures - please be patient (click on the picture to see larger size)

The Toy Run Parade started at Knoxville H-D Dealership. A little rain didn't seem to hurt the turn-out.

The Claus family was there for the ride and the Knox County and Anderson County Police provided a motorcycle escort.

The parade ride was about 35 miles leaving Knoxville H-D, going through Clinton to Norwood and then to Oak Ridge where the 13th Annual Toy Run party was held at the Backroad Pub and Grill.

The riders arrived at BP&G about 2:30pm where some great food and good friends waited.

Ellen collected toys and cash donations "for the kids" while the ACTR volunteers got the festivities started.

Good food, cold beer, door prizes, live music, an auction and a bike show provided plenty of entertainment.

Outside, the bike show was getting underway with some very nice entries ranging from a "rat bike" to some hot customs.

Inside, the party is getting underway with door prize drawings, bike ticket sales, T-shirt sales and plenty of food, friends and fun!

Jan and Amber are working the inventory table while preparations are being made to auction the "Paul Frost Memorial Quilt".

The "Quilt" was purchased by a group of ladies for $1600.00 and presented as a gift to Amber, Paul's daughter.

And now, the final "give-away" of the day - a 2004 H-D 883 Sportster Custom which was won by Evelyn Thompson. Congratulations Evelyn!

Amber and friends with the "Quilt"!

All that is left now is to party-on in celebration of another great day "for the kids"! More than $12,000.00 was raised at this event to help Anderson County children at Christmas. Congratulations ACTR volunteers and supporters for a job well done!
