Easter Egg Hunt An Eggstremely Fun Event

Happy Easter to all!

Thanks to all who came out to enjoy the Easter Egg Hunt and Brunch with the Easter Bunny today. About 25-30 children enjoyed the egg hunt, snatching up eggs strewn all over Cub's yard and in the Georgia St. Community Garden. After finding all of the eggs, everyone warmed up w/ MamaCub's fabulous hot chocolate and the yummy pancake & sausage breakfast made by Susie and Dave. Kids of all ages enjoyed meeting the Easter Bunny and taking a picture with him before heading home to eat all of the goodies found in the garden. Hope to see everyone at our next event!
