It has become an annual event fort Escalon High School; one Friday night during the fall when the football team is out of town, students take over the gridiron and turn it into a makeshift homeless camp. This Friday, Sept. 26, Escalon High School students and those from several other schools in Stockton and the surrounding area will converge at the football field and spend a night in cardboard box homes. The Kids in a Box fundraiser helps to increase awareness about the plight of homelessness and also raises money to benefit the Haven of Peace shelter for women and children in Stockton.
