CHS leadership class wraps gifts for nursing home residents

Crestview High School leadership students Skylar Smith, Nicole Doody and Ciara Dalton help Shoal Creek Rehabilitation Center residents wrap gifts for their family members.

CRESTVIEW — Numerous Shoal Creek Rehabilitation Center residents' family members can expect Christmas gifts when they come to visit.

And the packages will be pretty, thanks, in part, to about 20 Crestview High School students in Stephanie Sanders' leadership class who helped with gift wrapping.

The students — toting tape, scissors, wrapping paper and gift bags — visited Dec. 3 to assist.

With the sometimes difficult task of using scissors and tape out of the way, all residents need to do is present the gifts and enjoy time with their loved ones this Christmas, event organizers said.
