Woman's club helps children of military parents

FALLBROOK – Thanks to members of the Fallbrook Woman’s Club, 50 fourth- and fifth-graders, who are part of Operation Hero on Camp Pendleton, attended a special party where they “shopped for” and wrapped free Christmas presents for their parents. The children also received presents of their own from a wish list they had written for themselves. This activity culminated when members of the women’s club threw the Rockin’ with Santa party last month for the children.
