In the spirit of Christ- mas, CJOH-TV and MAJIC 100 have combined efforts with several area shopping centres to build TOY MOUNTAIN through the collection of a record number of toys, in support of the Salvation Army. Each year, many families within the Ottawa- Carleton Region rely on the Salvation Army's Toy Depot as their only source of obtaining Christ- mas presents for their children. By creating a "mountain of toys" we hope to increase the selection and number of toys for the children in need. Beginning November 16th, TOY MOUNTAIN displays will be prominently featured in the St. Laurent Shop- ping Centre, Rideau Centre, Carlingwood Mall, Robinsons Department 591 Bank St. Store in cooperation with Billings Bridge Plaza, and Robinsons Department Store at Lincoln Heights Galleria.
