Organisers are looking forward to being able to again help the Salvation Army and provide a great Christmas for those less fortunate.
One of the organisers, Rose Hancock said they are doing the same route as previous years; starting at Bathurst Showground at 9.00am for a 9.45am start and heading to the Bridge Hotel Perthville.
The run will then continue to The Gladstone Hotel Newbridge, the Royal Hotel Mandurama, the Royal Hotel Carcoar and the Royal Hotel Blayney.
Ms Hancock said they will then return to the Salvation Army to deliver the toys collected.
"In previous years we have had a great roll up and lot of support from the communities we visit. Everyone is so happy to be helping out for a great cause.
MAKING NEWS:
"This year we will have a few challenges, mainly due to the event being held before the Covid restrictions are lifted.
"Participants will need to show they are double vaccinated to enter the showground for the start of the event, and before entering any of the pubs we visit. This is out of our control and the fines are hefty for not complying.
"We encourage everyone to get involved, be either grabbing a toy (new and unwrapped) or some vouchers and coming on the ride or by dropping off a toy to one of our stops. Any cash donated on the day will be used to purchase toys or vouchers to fill any age gaps in what is collected," she said.
