It’s going to be a busy weekend at San Jose’s Christmas in the Park.

VTA’s annual Stuff the Bus, a donation campaign in partnership with the U.S. Marines Toys for Tots program, returns to Plaza de Cesar Chavez on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. VTA staff and U.S. Marines will be on hand to collect new, unwrapped donations of toys and books, as well any monetary gifts. They’re looking for gifts appropriate for kids ranging from newborns to mid-teens, with one caveat: No plush toys.

And on Sunday, the 14th annual Santa Run Silicon Valley will make its way through downtown San Jose, with the 5K’s runners and walkers finishing the race at Plaza de Cesar Chavez. You can still register for either the main race, which starts at 3 p.m., or the kids’ Reindeer Dash at 4:30 p.m. at www.santarunsv.com.
