What is the Kapco Kids2Kids Toy Drive?

Kapco Kids2Kids is a large-scale annual toy drive in Wisconsin, organized by Kapco, to provide new toys for children in need during the holiday season. Kids2Kids only accepts new and unwrapped toys for donation.

Toy Collection at Homestead

Toy collection at Homestead will take place from December 3rd through December 10th. As a reminder, donated toys must be new and unwrapped. Families can drop off toys in the main toy bin located at the attendance office. Toys can also be dropped off at the elementary or middle schools.

A Giving Globe will be set up in the front student office entrance for families to grab a snowflake tag targeted at a specific age group of need for Kapco. The item(s) can then be purchased and brought back to Homestead unwrapped and placed in our toy collection bin.

The legend of ”The Sword in the Stone” is rich with adventure, magic, heroes, and villains. In The Absolutely True Story of King Arthur, you’ll also adore the large number of female roles and a heaping serving of Spamalot! style humor.

This fun, non-musical adaptation of the classic tale features Arthur’s nefarious older sister, Morgan le Fay, as a contemptuous, power-hungry villainess who seeks the throne at any cost. Sensing this, their father, King Uthra, consults magician Merlin, who takes the king and queen’s newborn son and hides him away from harm until he is grown. Years pass and Morgan goes on the hunt for her brother, enlisting the help of an old crone named Grungehilde. Heartless and unscrupulous, Morgan also frees Saxons from the dungeon to get rid of the king, clearing her path to be queen...or so she thinks!

Can young Arthur pull the sword from the stone and take his rightful place on the throne? Only with the help of a strong and independent young woman named Guinevere and his hapless friend Kay can the absolutely true story of King Arthur be told!

Co-Directed by Jamie Love, our amazing Drama Director, and Laura Kloser, Milwaukee-based theatre director with experience at First Stage and Waukesha Civic Theatre, and performed by our very talented students in grades 5-8 in the Mequon-Thiensville community.
