The holiday season is right around the corner. This time of year may be difficult for some. With Thanksgiving just a couple of weeks away, now is a good time to take inventory of the things you are thankful for. This sort of positive thinking helps you stay healthy, both mentally and physically.

During the drive, Hardin is especially hoping to collect jeans, shoes, socks, and underwear, although clothing of all types and sizes are appreciated. Read more here.

Third-grade students at Hiland Park Elementary School and Tyndall Academy are making cards for the veterans at Clifford Chester Sims State Veterans Nursing Home.

The children know how hard it is when their families go on deployment. Read more here.
