Children over five-years-old make short work of the Easter egg hunt. Breakfast and Easter-themed pages to color were part of the activities. A 'guess the number of jelly beans in a jar', allowed children to win additional prizes, and a free raffle for adults offered several gifts, including a 10 pound spiral ham.
