Breakfast with the Easter Bunny:
On March 27, 2010 the Ag Society hosted breakfast with the Easter Bunny. Families were treated to a healthy breakfast and had the opportunity to decorate easter eggs, play games and colour. The Easter Bunny stopped by to say hello to everyone and then the children looked for over 800 easter eggs in the Community Hall Park.
The kids were given pumpkin and sun flower seeds to grow over the summer. The Ag Society will be planning activities to judge the fruits of your labour. Stay tuned for more information.
This event was a HUGE success. Thank you to all of the families that came out and to all of the volunteers that helped.
