During their visit, that began at 4 p.m. and lasted till after dark, the Marines and Sailors interacted with the children by playing soccer, jumping rope, singing songs and participating in piggy-back races. The highlight of the evening occurred when the service members and children held a limbo contest where they lined up for multiple turns.
