This fall, the California State Prison-Corcoran Honor Guard presented colors during an Exeter High School game honoring current and former first responders and military.
The “Patriots Game” is a way for the community to show their appreciation to those who’ve served in the military, law enforcement or as a first responder.
CDCR was invited to present the colors before the game.
“These types of events are really good for everyone. The school, the athletes, the community, and the Honor Guard team get to interact with each other on a positive note that otherwise may not have occurred,” said Sgt. E. Rios, an Honor Guard member.
Exeter Union High Football Coaches Ruben Ruiz and Steve Lentz, both CDCR staff, said they appreciated collaborative efforts of the school administration and the CSP-Corcoran Warden (A) T.L. Campbell.
The Exeter Fire Department, who was also present, and displayed the American flag from their firetruck.
