WPB P&DC’s employees purchased 25 bicycles, plus hundreds of toys were collected by the Plant and 334-349 area offices and sent to the WPB P&DC for the “Toys for Tots” Campaign.

Today the Marines picked up the bikes and toys. Assisting Marines Jessi Rodriguez and Gerson Chavez load the U-Haul were Lisa Albu, Marguerite Goulet, Paul Hill, Marcia Kolp, and David Snell.
