Hoppy Easter!

The much-loved Easter Bunny (Antonio Delfino) sat for pictures with his fans Saturday morning at the MTC. Guests enjoyed a breakfast of biscuits and gravy with a cookie for desert and, after pictures, the kids were called to the hunt.

There were 500 plastic eggs with candy inside and a couple of special golden eggs divided into the gymnasium, library and – due to the warm weather – outside. As the youngsters lined up, waiting for the signal to start, they carefully examined the field and discussed strategy with their friends.

Within a matter of moments, the ground was cleared of every egg and the rewards for the golden eggs were then received. The event hosted more than 80 youngsters and their parents and was sponsored by the Moorcroft Recreation Board.

Later, E.B. (TJ Gideon), as Mr. Bunny is affectionately called by his friends, visited "R" Place in Pine Haven for yet another rousing good time as many more admirers welcomed him with open arms. The guests decorated cupcakes, sat with him for pictures, received candy and socialized.

Many of the eggs on display were colored at the pre-Easter party last Wednesday where about 15 kids decorated 180 eggs; a labor for which they were paid with treats and lollipops.

At the party Saturday, kids were encouraged to take a couple of eggs and a few pieces of candy as they passed by. The Pine Haven Recreation Board and "R" Place hosted over 50 kids and adults.
