Here the Rams executed a 21-7 win over Tantasqua to complete the season for both teams. As the fog began to clear the field, the tension between the two teams remained, for the Rams were able to get on the board early in the game.

To ensure no child is disappointed, dress- barn is launching its Toys for Tots Drive for the second year in a row. The toy collec- tion will take place from Thuursday, Nov. 19 through Tuesday, Dec. 15. During this time, dress- barn stores across the country, including the Sturbridge location at The Center at Hobbs Brook, will encourage residents to donate new, unwrapped toys by giving cus- tomers who donate a 15 percent discount off their purchase of a regular-priced item. All of the toys collected will be given to children in the community. “The holidays can be hard for children from families of limited resources. We are determined to make an even bigger differ- ence as a company this year by collecting more than 12,000 toys,” said Louise Johnson. “A toy can be so much more than just a present. It can be a message of hope. Along with the Toys for Tots program, we strive to help motivate children to reach for their dreams, no matter what their cir- cumstances are. We at the Sturbridge dressbarn location are proud the company is taking part in this important effort again. We invite the local community to join us in spreading holiday cheer to those who need it most.” The Toys for Tots program objectives are to help less fortunate children throughout the country experience the joy of Christmas, to play an active role in the development of children, to unite all mem- bers of local communities, and to con- tribute to better communities in the future. By providing an example of success, the program aspires to steer children into becoming more responsible and productive citizens. For more information on dressbarn in Sturbridge, or its participation in the Toys for Tots Drive, please call (508) 347-3039.
