Colton >> On Wednesday, Dec. 21, at 9:30 a.m. members from the Colton Police Officers Association arrived at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, to deliver toys, candy and Christmas cheer to kids and families spending the holidays in the hospital. Santa Claus made a special appearance, escorted by Colton Police throughout the hospital starting in the lobby, emergency department and into the pediatrics unit. Operation Giving is a holiday tradition of the Colton Police Officers Association. Each year, officers support families in need and senior citizen groups by delivering Christmas trees, meals and presents. More than 500 toys were donated by Next Generation Solutions on behalf of the National DARE Program and the Colton Police Officers Association. The toys were wrapped and hand delivered by uniformed officers, Santa Claus and his elves throughout the entire hospital.
