In a “Stuff the Truck” service project, six U.S. Marines and a greater number of Marines recruits spent part of a rainy Saturday in Wilmington assisting in the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program. A tent and an Aaron’s donated truck were outside the Wilmington Walmart where passersby could donate cash and new toys so that toys can be distributed in Clinton County, said Cherie Gentry with the county program.
