"You will be sure to want to take a photo of your children with the Easter Bunny and Sammy the Supersaver," said Grange spokesperson Athol Hazen.
The Easter Egg Hunt will commence at 1 p.m. The Easter Egg hunters will participate in one of three age groups, two to four, five to seven, or eight to ten. The hunts will be consecutively, so that those with children in more than one age group can enjoy each. There will be games, refreshments, prizes and oodles of fun for everyone involved. Cotton Candy will be furnished by Uncle Gilly. Orange drink will be furnished by McDonalds. Grange members and their friends will be furnishing cookies for the enjoyment of those attending. Marshall Community Credit Union will furnish balloons .
"The event is a way for the community to get back outdoors and welcome in the spring," said Hazen. "Even if the weather is not very cooperative, the hunt will still go on, it will take place in a sheltered area. Yes, this is a big event. Help will be needed. Cookies, about 100 dozen, are needed to give to those attending."
