Egg hunt, church events celebrate Easter holiday

Posted 3/22/13

The Campbell County Recreation Center’s annual community Easter egg hunt has been moved and rescheduled.
The event, open to children ages 9 and younger, will start at 12:30 p.m. Sunday inside the Rec Center and Field House in anticipation of bad weather.
The children can hunt for plastic Easter eggs filled with candy. They will be divided into four different age groups, including 2 and younger, and ages 3-4, 5-6 and 7-9.
The Easter bunny also will make a special appearance to highlight the free event.
For more information, call Sandra Bott at 682-8527.
