More about Toys For Tots
Due to the recession and the highest unemployment rate Philadelphia has seen, the threat to deprive thousands of children of the joy of getting a fun gift over the holidays is a reality. The Marine Corps' annual drive has stepped up its goals for the Philadelphia region this year,and The Ultimate Networking Group would like to help. Please bring a new unwrapped toy to the event and feel the comfort and joy of bringing the Holiday spirit into a childs heart this season.
In 2008, our Toys for Tots collected a total of 139,000 toys donated by the public. The monetary donations collected purchased 9,992 new toys. We distributed a total of 163,358 toys to a total of 81,679 children. Our principal means of toy collection lied on the drop off locations and events held by companies and individuals of Philadelphia. Topping the list of major donors were the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Eagles.
So far this year we have distributed 10,152 toys to registered agencies. This year we currently have 458 registered agencies requesting toys but only have 185 drop-off locations. Brian Tierney of the Philadelphia Inquirer set the mark for Philadelphia to raise 150,000 toys collected during this years campaign and I would like to set the mark to try our hardest to make sure that every child wakes up to a gift for Christmas this year.

About The Manayunk Brewery
During the 1800's and into the 20th century, Manayunk was known for the manufacture and sales of fine textiles. Krook's Mill, now the Manayunk Brewery and Restaurant, was one of the linchpins of the then booming industry. Anne Dawson opened the mill in 1822 at the mouth of the Manayunk Canal and the Krook family followed with the existing building just short of 100 years later in 1912. A cornerstone from the original mill was placed in the new building. Krook's Mill eventually closed its doors in 1992.
Four years later, Harry Renner IV brought the facility back to life as a space for retail business, a fine eatery, a brewery and as an entertainment complex for both neighbors and visitors alike to enjoy. Our first batch of fresh-brewed beer was tapped on October 17, 1996. In 2000, we expanded our outdoor seating with a deck overlooking the Schuylkill River. In 2003, we added a Stone Pizza Oven and a Sushi Bar to expand our menu selection. Today you can still find the scale, now an antique, that was once used to weigh the wool brough into the factory
