Contributed content In the spirit of Christmas, your local Menards home improvement stores are proudly serving as a Toy Drive drop site through Dec. 15. “We’re excited to participate in this wonderful opportunity to put smiles on the faces of less fortunate children in the community. We’ll have a drop box near the exit door to collect new and unwrapped presents,” states a news release. In addition, a growing tradition in the Midwest for more than 50 years, experience the magic of Christmas by visiting the Enchanted Forest at Menards. Kids of all ages will be fascinated by the beautifully decorated trees, colorful lights, wonderful displays and Christmas décor that make up the Enchanted Forest. A visit with your family to the Menards Enchanted Forest might be the perfect way to get in the holiday spirit and experience the joy of Christmas. There are three Menards locations in the greater Columbus area: • Columbus, 1805 Morse Road • Columbus East, 6800 E. Broad St.
