Today - as a little girl, Taylor Davis learned the joy of giving back from her grandmothers. Every year, they would take her and her sister to a department store, where each girl would pick out a toy to donate to a child in need. This year, she’s purchased over 300 toys. The toys will be given away during the Project One / ARC Empowerment Center’s “Deck the Halls with Children’s Laughter” toy drive.

Also, Thayer Ridge Park is one of several parks, river accesses and trails in which Santa Claus’ nine reindeer, and corresponding QR codes, can be found for Reindeer in the Park — a challenge run by the Knox County Park District to encourage people to shop local and donate to Knox County Food for the Hungry. In addition to encouraging local shopping and donations, Reindeer in the Parks is a community education tool.
