Santa Cops at Markley Motors

Markley Motors is a toy drop off location for Santa Cops.

Santa Cops of Larimer County collects new toys, clothing, books, games and other items and distributes them to needy children, within the community. It is a way for less fortunate children to experience the joys of Christmas and the holiday spirit. Bring your donation to Markley Motors and bring joy to a needy child.

Santa Cops is a non-profit organization consisting of representatives from Fort Collins Police Services, Loveland Police Department, Larimer County Sheriff's Office, Colorado State Patrol, and Colorado State University Police and countless private individuals and businesses, each of whom are vital to our success. Together, we try to provide underprivileged children of Larimer County with three small gifts to bring a Merry Christmas to their homes. These are children who come from all walks of life and differing circumstances, but all are faced with financial limitations in their homes.

ARE YOU READY FOR THE WHOLE STORY ABOUT SANTA COPS?

Markley Motors very own, Gary Dunning (Parts) has been actively involved with delivering gifts via horse drawn carriage.  Gary has been doing this for about 15 years.  He drives his team of horses and wagon to the recipient's house, escorted by the City of Fort Collins or City of Loveland police departments.  Also, Tom Goowin (Parts Manager) has asssisted delivering presents.

For the last couple of years, Terry Brunk (Fixed Operaitons Manager)  has been playing the role of Santa Clause as the gifts are delivered to the needy children.

You can't tell, but that is Mr. Brunk as Santa!
