Christmas wishes came true Saturday, when about 50 children from the LightHouse after-school program stormed the aisles of Target. In the first Specialists Hospital Shreveport "Shop with a Doc" Christmas shopping spree held Dec. 10, each child will received $350 to spend on toys and another basic needs such as clothing and school supplies. The doctors involved come from Orthopedic Specialists of Louisiana, Spine Institute of Louisiana, and Pain Care Consultants. "The doctors were really excited to see the kids, instead of just writing a check," said Amanda McCarter, marketing specialist for the Hospital. Volunteers of America's LightHouse after-school program serves children ages kindergarten through 12th grade and their families from some of Shreveport-Bossier's poorest neighborhoods. Academics are the first priority for the students, who also take part in character building, community service and enrichment activities.  (95 photos)

The Bossier Bearkats won the Louisiana 4A State Championship. They brought home the trophy but they were not sure they could afford to bring home the rings. Our doctors presented the coach a check to make sure every champion received his 2011 championship ring.   (57 photos)
