Share

Corona del Mar Middle School students and parents brought some holiday cheer Thursday to veterans at the VA Long Beach Healthcare System hospital.

About 170 parents and seventh- and eighth-graders presented a brunch and a variety show that included 25 skits. Veterans also received gift bags filled with hats, socks, toiletries and handwritten letters of appreciation from students.

The group also donated more than $3,000 to help fund outings for veterans, said Jen Dauderman, who helped organize the event.
