Ariella Ericksen, age 1 1/2 and Emily Rodriguez, age 7 were the finders of the golden eggs in their age division.

Young and old alike gathered today a the Hope Country Club to have some fun at the Annual Junior Auxiliary Easter Egg Hunt. Kiddos were all smiles and squeals as they huddled around the pen at the petting zoo, getting stick on tattoos and playing games while parents of little ones looked on with delight snapping pictures. There was a long line as families waited for their turn to snap a photo with the elusive Easter Bunny.

The children, Easter baskets in hand stood patiently waiting as the clock struck 10:30 so they could hunt for eggs. Once the count down hit ONE, off they went as fast as their little legs would go snatching up eggs hopeful they would be the one to find the golden prize egg.

All of the kids then traded their eggs in for some sweet treats. Ariella Ericksen, age 1 1/2 and Emily Rodriguez, age 7 were the finders of the golden eggs in their age division. They each got a special prize, a basket filled with candy and toys.

Everyone had a wonderful time and many stayed to have lunch of hamburgers, hotdogs and chips. It was a great turn out this year and a success for the 2023 Annual JA Easter Egg Hunt at the Hope Country Club.
