HBAL members gathered on November 15, 2025 to make 60 builder block sets to be donated to the Lincoln Police Department. Officers will distribute these toys to children they encounter while on the job. Since 1988, HBAL members have made over 2,300 wonderful toys for the Santa Cop program.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success!
