The 2025 Lansingburgh Knights Football Program Toy Drive at Forty-One Sports Bar & Grille set the latest record for this annual event, with over 2,400 toys collected for Lansingburgh's elementary school students! Pictured below are just some of this year's toy donations at Forty-One on December 12. 

Every year, the Lansingburgh Central School District community joins together for this event benefiting the students at Turnpike Elementary School (pre-kindergarten–grade 2) and Rensselaer Park Elementary School (grades 3–5). The district's Knights Football Program organizes this annual event, with Lansingburgh Varsity Football Coach Jeffrey Pasinella acting as the primary coordinator.

The Knights Toy Drive has consistently set a new toy collection record for the last four years, with this year's total setting a new high benchmark for the community's support of Lansingburgh students. Collection totals for the last four years are: 

  • 2022: 1,002 
  • 2023: 1,080
  • 2024: 1,430
  • 2025: 2,404 

Thank you to all the Lansingburgh CSD community members who donated this year, to Forty-One for hosting this year and to Coach Pasinella & the Knights Football Program for their ongoing dedication to the district's students!
