SHARON SPRINGS — The 3rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by KNK Landscaping LLC was held at Sharon Springs Central School this past Saturday, April 20th at noon! This event was a great success with a large turnout and beautiful weather!

Ten thousand eggs were hidden by volunteers all over the SSCS grounds and there were special prize tickets among the eggs. Dozens of children went home with big prizes like bikes, huge Easter baskets, and more!

The SSCS grounds were split into different areas by age to make sure each child had a chance to fill their baskets! This was a very well-organized event.

After the children picked up every last egg, they “shelled them”, taking the candy and returning the plastic eggs. Following the egg hunt, there were photo ops at the front of the school with the Easter Bunny, who then gave each child a big chocolate bunny and treats!

Mother Nature cooperated for this annual egg hunt with near-perfect weather, especially since the rain did come later in the day. The event couldn’t have been better timed!

A BIG thank you to KNK Landscaping LLC, the organizers, volunteers, and especially Ken & Nina Kennedy! This is another fantastic display of dedication to the community.
