0 Comment

Intracoastal Christmas Regatta – Hosted by Yachts for Tots of NMB/Little River
“Each year on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, locals flock to the waterfront to view this spectacular maritime parade. The flotilla starts at the Little River Inlet at 5 PM and travels south, arriving at Dock Holidays Marina at 7 PM. Gather your family and watch the parade as it passes various viewing areas along the waterway. There is no charge to watch the Intracoastal Christmas Regatta, but spectators are encourage to donate toys & more.”

Donation Toy Box Locations
“The children of Horry County do believe and we can help make their dreams come true with your help. With your donations of new, unwrapped toys and/or monetary offerings, we can reach our goal….to make sure there is not a single child without a present to open on Christmas morning.

Spreading South Hampton Christmas Cheer to Children in Need

“Yachts for Tots started out with three organizers in 1985.  The crew now includes a core group of local residents who have a genuine interest in helping bring the boating community together to make a difference in the lives of children in Horry County.

​Through fundraising activities and toy drives, the Yachts for Tots volunteers strive to meet the needs of children in Horry County who, for one reason or another, might be falling through the cracks of traditional agencies that provide assistance. Yachts for tots assists children with specific needs as they arise, year-round. We also make annual contributions to camp chemo, teen angels, and/or other local charities.”  

Lynn Leonti 1109 will be collecting donations for Yachts for Tots & dropping them off at a local Yachts for Tots donation center.

Please contact her at 440-668-1515 or tomlynn1@frontier.com if you wish to donate or with any questions.

She will be at the South Hampton December 1st – 22nd to collect donations.

You can also purchase from Amazon or Walmart and have it delivered to Lynn.  She will confirm with you when she receives it.
