When Collette Barragan learned of a “Santa Run” that took Christmas gifts to children in Boquillas Del Carmen, Mexico, she always wanted to participate. Long before she came to Fort Stockton, Barragan often visited Boquillas – a Mexican border town adjacent to Big Bend National Park accessible only by boat – and when she learned of the Santa Run, she was unable to participate because her children were too young.
