Easter 2008 Highlights

The 2008 Easter Egg Hunt took place on March 22, in the snowiest of conditions in recent memory. But 48 young people attended the event on a dark and dreary day anyhow.

Members present at the March 4-H meeting filled eggs, numbered prize eggs and prizes to give away.

A thank you from North Country 4-H goes to the Lions Club and Senior Center, along with members of the community who donated to make this year's Easter Egg Hunt successful.
