Because it’s the community requesting the toys, we need the communi- ty to also help out.” Donations for the Toys For Tots gift drive are accepted throughout the year and they’ll start gift giving next week on Wednesday, November 27 and operate through December 24. Eligibility to get gifts through the Toys For Tots program is based on an application process. Potential clients will receive an email notifying them if they were approved. However, Dwyer said not many gifts have been brought by her office for this year’s toy collection. “Through the fundraisers, there’s been a phenomenal amount of turnout, but as far as people just stopping by and donating — no,” she said. “That’s where we ask the gen- eral public to please get on board, whether it’s financially or whether it’s with gifts, please do so.” The toys that are donated to Toys for Tots never leave the area, and Dwyer never sees the children who will get the gifts. She only meets with the parents or guardians. “That way, they are free to come in here, shop free of charge for their children and then it’s up to them to make Christmas happen as a family — not me handing a gift to that child,” Dwyer said. “Me hand- ing a gift to that child means nothing to that child, but if a parent can make Christmas happen on Christmas Day. For a child who never expected to get anything for Christmas, we’ve done our job as a commu- nity and that’s what it’s about.” This year the Toys For Tots program is trying to provide two to three gifts per child. “Hopefully, we’re able to keep that up,” she said. “We’re only able to do that if the gifts are coming in. That’s why we count on the community.” For further details, visit: TONY BRITT/Lake City Reporter toysfortots.org or Lake-City-Fl. Inga Dwyer, Toys For Tots Coordinator for Columbia and Suwannee Counties of North Florida, arranges toys in boxes as she prepares toysfortots.org. to distribute them to local families beginning next week.

GIRLS BASKETBALL COLLEGE FOOTBALL Florida’s Pitts MEET THE PRESS one of nation’s top tight ends Florida pass catcher has become a candidate for the All-America team.

By DAVE SKRETTA Associated Press

It was midway through the third quarter last Saturday, and Missouri had just cut Florida’s lead to 13-6, when Gators quarterback Kyle Trask dropped back and saw Kyle Pitts down the right sideline. Trask heaved the ball and Pitts, the big and rangy tight end, grabbed it along with Tigers safety Khalil Oliver. They still had control of it when they hit the ground, Pitts unwilling to let it out of his enormous paws, and it took a video review to decide who had possession. Pitts wound up with a 25-yard catch. And three players later, Trask threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Lamical Perine that effectively sealed the Gators’ 23-6 victory. It was just another example of why Pitts is a legit- imate candidate for postseason honors, including the AP All-America team presented by Regions Bank. “Especially for the short throws over the middle, he has great body awareness to position guys up,” Trask said. “If nothing else is there, you’ve got a big athlete that is going to make plays.” Pitts has been crucial to the Gators’ continued success after losing quarterback Feleipe Franks to a season-ending knee injury. He has the second-most catches and fifth-most yards receiving among tight ends nationally, averaging 4.2 catches per game and hauling in five touchdown catches. He’ll be playing with a chip on his shoulder going forward, too. The voting panel for the Mackey Award, given to
