Toy drive underway for eligible Hamilton County children.

The Iowa State Patrol in Fort Dodge and the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Department are teaming to help make the Christmas season brighter for eligible children in the Hamilton County area. A toy and gift drive is underway this week. You may bring your new toy to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s office this week between 8:00 until 4:30 at the Hamilton County Courthouse or to the Iowa State Patrol office south of Fort Dodge at the Coalville exit of Highway 20. The gifts will then be distributed to eligible children just before Christmas. Your help would be appreciated!
