Zoner1320 Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Yeah I have often wondered about that. I have been in contact with Akron Childrens Hospital and sensed some attitude when I wanted to start a charity run on their behalf. This was not the first I have heard of it either.I agree the Toy Run is a plus. I have been once and Ill be going this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I think the guy that told you that story might be stretching it a bit. I drove for Waste Management and trust me there is no way in hell they allowed someone to burn anything at a landfill. The risk of the fire spreading is way too high.

Vulcan_Rider Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Not that I don't agree with you (cuz I do) but could they be destroying unwrapped toys for fear they have something in/on/wrong with them?I mean, not like factory wrapping = people proof... just wondering if that's why.I would accept that but there was no requirement made to have the donation wrapped, plus they got rid of some that were wrapped.

The risk of the fire spreading is way too high.I believe that is what he told me but this was also 4 or 5 years ago that he told our group about this, so my memory could be a bit fuzzy, I will have to ask him next time I see him.

Likwid Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I would accept that but there was no requirement made to have the donation wrapped, plus they got rid of some that were wrapped.Now that I can agree with 100%. If you don't tell people what is expected than you can't penalize someone else for them not doing the right thing...But in regards to your last post.... I hope things have changed or that your memory is off!But now I'll know to bring a wrapped toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
