Annual Easter Egg Hunt a Success

Dexter, Missouri - Despite the cold, foggy morning hundreds of children and adults bundled up and headed out to the West City Park for the Annual Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Dexter.

The Easter Bunny even took some time out of his busy schedule to stop by for photo opportunities with the youngsters.  Even the Boy Scouts had their photo taken with the Bunny!  Some of the littlest ones were quite frightened of this huge bunny, but he waived and patted their heads and made them feel much better.  Some even began to smile and laugh. 

As the clock neared the starting time, children were starting to bend as if ready for a race.  Precisely at 1 p.m. the horn sounded and the children ran to collect hundreds of eggs in just mere minutes.  Everyone was smiling and reaching for a plastic colorful egg with a prize inside and in a flash it was all over.

There were three special eggs and if found that child received a wonderful Easter Basket full of goodies!  There sure were plenty of eggs on the ground, in the bushes, and in the trees.  Everyone was looking up and down and all around trying to find those colorful eggs.

It seemed everyone had a great time and enjoyed their candy and prizes! 

There are plenty of pictures on ShowMe Times Facebook page and under photos on www.showmetimes.com.  Hope everyone has a very special Easter!
