Sled.

FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas — A child sleds down a snow ramp Jan. 30 at the Warrior and Family Support Center’s Winter Wonderland. Wounded Warriors and their Families threw snowballs, sledded down the snow ramp, danced in the snow and feasted on tamales. They didn’t let the rain stop them as they spent the evening in the imported snow and got a taste of winter. “A lot of these families have never seen snow or haven't seen it in quite a while,” said Judith Markelz, WFSC program manager, “and if we can help create a memory for them, it's worth whatever it takes from us.”

Jump.

FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas — Children of Wounded Warriors jump in the snow as part of a musical Winter Wonderland at the Warrior and Family Support Center Jan. 30. Wounded Warriors and their Families didn’t let the rain stop them as they spent the evening throwing snowballs, sledding down a snow ramp, dancing in the snow and feasting on tamales. “A lot of these families have never seen snow or haven't seen it in quite a while,” said Judith Markelz, WFSC program manager, “and if we can help create a memory for them, it's worth whatever it takes from us.”
