Even Snow Can't Keep Easter Egg Hunters Away

Nolan Murray, 2, of Schomberg had no trouble finding eggs, but he wasn't quite sure what to do next. It was cold Saturday, with lots of snow still on the ground, but the Easter egg hunters were still out in force in Pottageville Park for the annual event, hosted by the Lions Clubs of King City and Nobleton. The crowd of kids stampeded into the park as soon as the horn sounded. It didn't take them long to collect all the eggs. Marie Groombridge of Schomberg was helping direct Kotabear and Raindancer, both 2, to where they would be able to find eggs. Some of the young egg hunters were in costume for the occasion. Carys Evans, 2, of King City, even had mask on. Madelyne Fasciano, 18 months, of King City collected a whole bunch of eggs, and she kept adding them to the overflowing basket her mother, Jennifer, was holding for her. The young hunters were able to trade in the eggs they collected for Easter treats, as David Stewart, 2, of Schomberg is seen doing.
