Frederick Keys Launch 2026 Toys for Tots Drive

FREDERICK, MD – The Frederick Keys are proud to again be partnering with the United States Marine Corps Reserve for their annual Toys for Tots Drive, helping bring joy to children in need across Frederick County. Beginning Monday, November 9, the Keys will be collecting new, unwrapped toys which will be handed out to children in need on Christmas Day.

This year’s Toys for Tots Drive runs through Friday, December 4, with the last day of collection planned for the Keys Holiday Party on Saturday, December 5 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

“Toys for Tots and the Keys have been long-standing partners to brighten the holiday season for children in our community,” said Frederick Keys General Manager Branden McGee. “Keys fans really stepped up last year and were able to donate more toys than ever before, ensuring a joyful holiday season for many families in the Frederick area.”

One of Frederick County’s top donation destinations, Nymeo Field at Harry Grove Stadium, will be open for drop off from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday. To drop off toys, fans should visit the main office (adjacent to the main stadium gates). Every individual who makes a contribution will receive a pair of tickets to a 2027 Frederick Keys home game.

Fans can also bring toys to the Keys Holiday Party on Saturday, December 5 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the IBEW Local 24 Performance Center at Nymeo Field at Harry Grove Stadium. Fans can RSVP for the holiday party by clicking here.
