The 79th annual Mac’s Toy Fund party is just two days away.

On Saturday, hordes of children will descend on the Beckley-Raleigh County Convention Center, which will have been transformed into the largest toy store in southern West Virginia.

But your help is still needed to make that happen.

Monetary donations, as well as gifts of used toys and bicycles, are still being accepted.

Used bikes, including broken ones, can be dropped off through Friday at Beckley Fire Station No. 3 on Eisenhower Drive and behind the Beckley-Raleigh County Convention Center.

Used toys can be dropped off at The Register-Herald, 801 N. Kanawha St., and at BJW Printing, 3100 Robert C. Byrd Drive.
