The Berks County Toys for Tots campaign kicked off on Sunday.
Hundreds of motorcycles, cars and trucks converged on First Energy Stadium for the 13th annual event.
Everyone at the kickoff was asked to bring a toy.
In exchange for the toy, everyone got a free hot dog, got to look at the Harleys on display and even chat with Santa.
The toys collected Sunday and throughout the drive will be split between the Toys for Tots program, and the Children's Home of Reading.
Donations will be accepted through December.
