The Easter Egg hunters were out in style Saturday. The day was beautiful and it seems most all were ready for a day outing dressed in their Easter finest. It may have taken members of the Lions Club almost a couple hours to “hide” the hundreds of colorful filled eggs, but those little egg hunters made short work of finding them and filling their baskets to overflowing. Thank you to all who helped make this possible for our young ones. It was a fun day.
The Fifty-third Annual Kiwanis Auction had good weather over the weekend. As usual a crowd of local and not-so-local interested buyers gather to see what they may need. Also what good bargains they can gather up. It is the yearly social event for Stevens County.
