HISTORY
The Jim Rosenkrans Memorial Toy Run started in 1979 where Jamie Rosenkrans, owner, was teaching at Rio Vista Elementary. It was then that Jim and Jamie decided to create a vehicle for giving back to the community. The event has grown much since then with last year's roster consisting of 2,500 people and 1,800 bikes. Not forgetting its humble beginnings, the Toy Run is still a major event for the dealership where owner Jamie Rosenkrans insists that no child be without a toy on Christmas. Although Jim is no longer here to share this momentous occasion, his memory lives on in the Toy Run.
