Kids scoured the grounds in search of colorful eggs, including the shiny golden eggs! Adding to the festive-themed day, kids and families snagged selfies and photos with the Spring Bunny. This event wouldn’t have been possible without the many incredible volunteers. A big thanks go out to the Shoreview/Arden Hills Lions Club, Mounds View National Honor Society, and the City’s PTRC members for generously giving their time and effort to ensure the event ran smoothly.
