With help from Sonoma County organizations that helped during the Tubbs Fire, Lake County’s Sabrina Rich prepared over 100 stockings for children in need, particularly those affected by the Sulphur Fire. Before arriving in Austin Park in Clearlake where she would hand out stockings with Santa Claus, Rich said a line of families was already waiting for her to come. Stockings had toys, iTunes gift cards, and hygienic items.
