Toys for Tots is accepting donations until December 8th, when they will no longer be accepted. Drop off a toy and make a child's Christmas brighter. Give back this holiday season.
Look for the signs!
During the Christmas season of 2022, the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program will celebrate its 75th anniversary! Please join us in a one-of-a-kind national celebration of this historic occasion.
For more than seven decades, the Program has developed and grown enormously, delivering Christmas hope and enchantment to over 281 million poor children. The Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program, now in its 75th year, also provides year-round assistance to families facing challenges and extraordinary situations, so assisting in the realization of the goals and ambitions of millions of families and children in need across our wonderful nation.
This centennial year will allow us to bring the Marine Corps Reserve and the Toys for Tots Program to a national audience by sharing our rich history, traditions, and the tremendous community support we get each year. We are delighted that renowned American Pop Artist Charles Fazzino has agreed to memorialize this occasion. The net proceeds from the sale of his official anniversary poster, which can be seen here, will be donated directly to our cause.
Events and events taking place around the country will excite the American people and focus their attention on:
Showcase our exceptional Reserve Marines, both current and former.
Highlight the Toys for Tots Program's impact on communities around the country.
Leaders in the community, business sponsors, organizations, and volunteers are recognized and acknowledged.
Most importantly, aid children in need for every family in need of Christmas assistance.
Please join us in commemorating and applauding the Reserve Marines and numerous volunteers who have selflessly benefited over 281 million children in need. We encourage you to join us as communities around the country come together to help children in need via the Marine Toys for Tots Program. We've been in business for 75 years!

]]>The post DIY Fall Decorating Tips: How to Decorate this Autumn appeared first on The Magnolia Apartments Blog.
]]>Fall is finally here! Are you prepared to bring the splendor of the autumn season into your apartment or house? When it comes time to pack it all away, rely on some of the décor ideas listed below. Decorating can make fall even better!
Decide on a focus.
If you enjoy the change of the seasons and can't wait to display your pumpkin décor, you might be eager to cram your house with as many objects with an autumnal theme as you can. To avoid overwhelming your visitors with decor, choose one (or two, alright) key focus areas before going overboard.
A dining room table, a fireplace mantel, a kitchen island, a coffee table, or simply wherever you and your people spend the most time together are all excellent places for your focal point. You want to be able to appreciate it!
Once that's done, place smaller arrangements around the remaining areas of your home. Small pumpkins, candles with a fall motif, faux fruit and foliage, and other such items make wonderful accent pieces.
Embrace Local Artwork
Why not frame your local artist’s artwork if you want to give your holiday décor a sincere and lovely touch? We promise you'll smile every time you see it, and it will make your home feel part of the community.. You may amass quite the collection over the years, and bringing these things out of storage with each new season will undoubtedly bring back some wonderful memories.
Look through the Dollar Section
If you're decorating on a tight budget, you don't need to spend a lot of money at pricey department stores. You can find some high-quality things in many retailers' dollar aisles, or you can visit your community's dollar store to see what special Christmas deals they are offering. You'd be shocked at how many excellent things are offered at much lower price points, and there are frequently a few one-of-a-kind treasures in there, as well.
How Does Your Front Porch or Patio Look?
Since your front porch is the first thing guests see when they arrive at your house, this is a wonderful opportunity for you to showcase your decorating prowess. A few pumpkins, a floor mat with a fall motif, and a cheery wreath can make a world of difference! Some even spend extra money on scarecrows, beautiful signs, or orange twinkling lights.
What are your fall decorating tips? Tell us in the comments!

]]>The post Outdoor Recreation: Hiking and Camping at Bledsoe Creek State Park appeared first on The Magnolia Apartments Blog.
]]>Looking for hiking trails near Antioch, Tennessee?
Bledsoe Creek State Park is a great option for both hiking and camping.
400 Zieglers Fort Road
615-452-3706
The history of Bledsoe Creek State Park is extensive. The Cherokee, Creek, Shawnee, and Chickamauga Native American tribes previously used it as an excellent hunting area. The once-large herds of animals were scattered once English immigrants came, never to reappear. Along with other surrounding historical monuments, the region is home to a plethora of Native American heritage. In 1973, the area around Bledsoe Creek was designated as a Tennessee State Park.
There are 57 campsites in the park. There are beautiful hiking paths that go longer than six miles. The park's pathways wind through the woodland and alongside the lake. These paths have one mile of paved sections that make them accessible to those with impairments. All seasons can be used the trails.
There are two boat launch ramps available at Bledsoe Creek, one of which is only accessible to registered campers. Fishing at Old Hickory Lake, picnic areas (the largest of which can hold up to 150 people), and park programs, which offer entertainment for people of all ages and change annually, are other activities.
Activities
PADDLING
PaddleEZ provides kayak and paddleboard rentals at Bledsoe Creek. It costs $18 an hour. You will be provided with a code to access your boat and equipment after completing your online reservation and payment.
HIKING
Visit one of the seven trails at Big Hill Pond, including Fox Hollow Trail and Rocky Knob Trail, which vary in length and complexity.
FISHING/BOATING
The 22,500-acre Old Hickory Lake Reservoir offers water sports including skiing, fishing, and other water activities.
BIRDING
At the park, 116 different species have been identified.
NEW CAMPSITES IN THE CAMPGROUND
57 flat campsites, each 65 feet long and 25 feet broad, are available along Bledsoe Creek. The boundaries, fire rings, grills, lantern stands, and picnic tables at the campsites have all been replaced. There are 14 campsites with 30 amp service, and 43 with 50/30 amp service. A garbage station and water are always accessible for each site. The campgrounds have recently undergone modifications to make them ADA accessible.
DIMENSIONAL CAMPSITES
Additionally, there are eight rustic beachfront sites available. These beachfront locations provide stunning lake views. Each drive-in site features a fire pit, grill, and picnic table. Up to four tents may be set up with ease, and there are many trees available for hammocks. You can fit up to eight persons per site. Potable water is available to campers, but there is no power. The distance to the bathhouse, our well-known Shoreline Trail, and a fishing spot are all quite short.
The two restrooms provide heat and hot showers and are ADA compliant. All year long, the laundry is open.
Pets are welcome, but they must be leashed and kept under supervision. At the park, you may purchase firewood.
