The Ontario Toy Show is happening on Sunday, but the online auction closes at 6:00 p.m. tomorrow.
EMBRO - It's one of the largest fundraisers for the Woodstock-Oxford Rotary Club.
Member Doug Vincent says the 39th annual Ontario Toy Show will be taking over the Embro Zorra Community Centre this Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
"This is one of our major fundraisers and it's the 39th year we've had it. It's grown into one of the top toy shows in Canada. Often people will come from the north-east United States, from western Canada, Quebec and the Maritimes."
Coordinator Karyn Liddle says there will be 76 tables filled with collectable toys, 50 vendors, and lots of displays from youth and adults.
"You're going to see all sorts of things from 1/87 scale farm toys, tractors, trucks, diecast, we've got some banks that are available, and all the way up to pedal tractors."
Awards will be handed out at 2:45 p.m. that day and admission is $6 per person or $2 for kids under 12.
The Rotary Consignment Auction is underway right now and the bidding closes tomorrow at 6:00 p.m.. You can view all of the items and submit your bids online here.
Vincent says all of the money raised from the Toy Show and the Consignment Auction will be put to good use.
"We work with the youth quite a bit. We support the YMCA and Wellkin centre. The Rotary organization also has youth leadership camps that we send students to and our popular youth exchange program. We also do the Community Free Table."
The Community Free Table is located on the back lawn of the Church of the Epiphany in downtown Woodstock. It provides a hot lunch to the hungry and the homeless every Saturday at 12:00 p.m..
