UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

The 2026 statistics are in. It was an absolute phenomenal year. All I can say is unbelievable. In these uncertain times, you can all know there will be children who will be garenteed a Christmas morning due to the efforts of all of you who supported and partipated in the 2026 Summertime Parade of Lights.

On behalf of the South Portland Lion's Club and Southern Maine "Toys for Tots," I would like to thank you ALL!!!!

This event was held on Saturday, August 8, 2026. Approximately a sixteen (16) boats participated by adorning their vessels with bright lights and assorted decorations. Spectators lined the shoreline in areas such as Bug Light Park, Maine State Pier, and various marinas along the parade route.

In our 13-year history, this event has had over 211 participating boats, collected over 1,583 toys, and raised over.... $26,547 for the "Toys for Tots" organization.

This fundraiser would not have been possible without your support. The 2026 Casco Bay Summertime Parade of Lights collected over 153 toys and raised $3 242, which will be utilized to purchase toys for children at Christmas time.

All proceeds raised by this event are distributed by Toys for Tots Coordinator Carol Lombard and her team in the month of December. Toys are distributed to families in the state of Maine who are most deserving of this opportunity.

In conclusion, on behalf of the South Portland Lion's Club and "Toys for Tots," I would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for the generosity of your support.

Sincerely,
Shawn
