OA REMINDER: For the second year in a row, the OA Transportation Department is spearheading a district-wide effort to collect toys for the Marine Corps Reserve Toys For Tots Program! This year, the toy drive is in memory of our colleague, Tammy Garafano, who we lost unexpectedly this past summer. Each building has collection boxes, as well as the district office and the bus garage. If you have an unwrapped, new toy - please consider dropping it in one of the boxes on campus by Friday, December 9th. #OACommunity #OAPride #OATradition
