This holiday season, we’re joining forces with the Greater Chesapeake Foundation, E.C. Pops, The Five Arrows Media, and DJ Kopec to collect toys for children in local hospitals, schools, and shelters.
In support of the Stuff the Train Toy Drive, join DJ Kopec for a fun, all-ages Holiday Dance Party in the Roundhouse of the National Museum of Railroad History & Innovation! Bring new, unwrapped toys for kids of all ages, from infants to young adults. Enjoy visits with Santa, special guests and more!
