Season of Giving Toy Drive Kicks Off November 17

Giving back and fitness go hand in hand; they both feel great. We’re proud to partner with United Way and CBS Sacramento for another Season of Giving toy drive to add some extra joy to fellow community members’ holiday seasons.  

Last year, thanks to the generosity of our community, more than 1,300 toys were collected. This year, we’re challenging our In-Shape community to amplify the holiday spirit by donating even more toys.  
 
To make it easy, we have donation bins conveniently located near the Welcome Desk at 32 clubs. If you’re a member, drop your new and unwrapped toy off on your way into your workout. Not a member yet? Stop in, take a look around, and drop off your toy.  Before you leave, visit the Welcome Desk to secure a free pass to try out the club. Bins will be out from November 17 through December 14.

Participating Clubs for Toy Drop-Off 

Carmichael, Ceres, Citrus Heights, Downtown Sacramento (K Street), East Arden, El Dorado, Elk Grove, Folsom, Greenhaven, Laguna, Lodi, Madison, Manteca, Midtown, Modesto Floyd, Modesto McHenry North, Modesto Prescott, Natomas, Orangevale, Pocket, Rocklin, Rocklin Sports Complex, Roseville, Stockton Hammer Lane, Stockton March Lane, Stockton West Lane, Sunrise, Tracy, Turlock Monte Vista, Watt, Woodland, and Yuba City.
