Home Depot Center News

The Los Angeles Sol will kick off their first-ever Holiday Toy Drive this Sunday, November 23 at The Home Depot Center. The start of the Sol's 2008 collection campaign will coincide with MLS Cup at The Home Depot Center, with Sol defender Kendall Fletcher signing autographs for all donors who drop off a toy at the Sol booth at Soccer Celebration prior to the game.

In addition to an autograph from Fletcher, any fan donating an unwrapped toy worth three dollars or more will receive a voucher for one free ticket with the purchase of a full-price ticket to any Sol home game in 2009.

The Sol is partnering with The Home Depot Center Charitable Foundation and the Marine Corps Reserve's Toys for Tots program on this endeavor, which will run until December 18. Other collection points for the Holiday Toy Drive include the Team LA stores at The Home Depot Center and Universal CityWalk as well select retail locations throughout Southern California. In addition, there will be a collection box in the lobby of The Home Depot Center from December 8-18.

Season tickets for the inaugural year of Sol soccer at The Home Depot Center range from $125 to $750 and are already on sale. For more information or to purchase your tickets today, please call toll free at 1-877-4-SOL-TIX (1-877-476-5849) and www.LosAngelesSol.com .
