Community Center Easter Egg Hunt Brought Out About 200 Eager Kids


Yesterday's Easter Egg Hunt on the grass in front of the Laurelhurst Community Center was well attended with about 200 kids and probably about that many parents as well totalling about 400 people, according to the Laurelhurst Community Center Staff.

Kids found tons of brightly colored eggs with chocolates and other surprises in them. And also on the ground were lots of fun surprises - jump ropes, playdough, bubbles, wind up toys and lots of other great surprises put out by the staff. Kids were very excitedly heard telling eachother what they found and trying to make trades.

The Easter Bunny was of course very popular with parents swarming around to get pictures of him and his basketand carrot with their kids.

Inside, the staff had prepared very fun and interesting crafts for the kids of all ages. One was a plastic yellow cup with a string and if you pulled on the string with the sponge attached it make a quacking sound. Pretty clever! Kids then decorated the cup to make a ducky face. Other crafts were bunny ears kids could wear, pretty flower, as well as lots of different pictures to color.

Once again the Community Center put on a great event!

Here are some pictures from the event!
