Easter Egg Hunt at Armstrong Park success..

EASTER EGG HUNT has come and gone for the year of 2009.

Again we had a very successful year with the Easter Egg Hunt. The Optimist Club stuffed over 9,000 eggs and gave away 6 baskets full of goodies. There was a gold and silver egg in each year group in which the winners were given a basket that contained donations from the club, Christy Davis, Kathy Doty, Lunar Bowl, Sonic and GV Community Center. Thank you all for your kind donations and thank you to all of those who helped stuff the eggs the week before and came out to help spread them out. While the kids were waiting for the count down, many came and paid a visit to our bunny and had their picture taken. WE had over 40 pictures taken which is more than last year and is growing every year. Many managed to get the picture before the hunt and we had a great many that took them after the hunt was over. This gives the club a better idea as to how they will plan for next year as we will be going digital and printing pictures.
Again thanks for all of your help and see you next year. Please enjoy some of the pictures below. I got pictures of the winners but no names to go with them this year, sorry, I was kind of in a rush. But as John and I move on, we want to say that the Easter Egg Hunt we enjoyed doing. We are passing this project to Kathy Doty and Jennifer Bailey. Thanks all.

Here is Mattie Ronchetto who has been coming to the hunt since she was a small baby. I always love to take a picture of her. Mattie is President Ann Ronchetto's grandchild.

Not sure if Bob was happy to see the rabbit or if he was wanting to keep him from leaving.
