About 90 students from across San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Counties submitted short essays describing what they are doing in their home, school, or community to be more kind to the environment.

After Saturday’s game, the Ontario Reign held a live auction of the custom-designed green jerseys the hockey team wore during the game. The auction raised more than $27,000, which will support the Frontier Project Foundation’s educational programming.
