Menards stores in Big Rapids, Comstock Park and Ionia collecting Christmas toys

In the spirit of Christmas, Menards home improvement stores in Big Rapids, Comstock Park and Ionia are among those proudly serving as toy drive drop sites now through Dec. 15. “We’re excited to participate in this wonderful opportunity to put smiles on the faces of less fortunate children in the community,” said Jeff Abbott, spokesman for Menards Inc. “We’ll have a drop box near the exit door to collect new and unwrapped presents.”
