On Saturday, December 1st Belmont Child Care Association, (BCCA) held its annual Holiday Shopping event at Belmont Park’s Turf and Field Club! Over 500 children from the backstretch families of Belmont Park and Aqueduct Racetrack lined up to “shop” for their relatives. Numerous volunteers from the local community acted as “elves” taking each child around to pick out the perfect gift. BCCA would like to thank all its generous supporters for helping to make this cherished event possible and would like to extend an extra special thank you to the following organizations who helped spread the Christmas cheer: USMC Toys for Tots, NYRA, Coach Realtors – Garden City, the National Charity League, Inc. (Garden City Chapter), Neiman Marcus Roosevelt Field, Sapienza Bakery, and the Garden City Service League of Boys.
