Easter Egg Hunt Photos

What a great time we had at the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, March 30!  Many thanks to Laura Nattinger and Lisa Griggs for all their hard work in planning such a fun event.  The children enjoyed an egg hunt, refreshments, face painting and even a petting zoo!  Here are some photos from the morning’s festivities.

Easter Egg Hunt – March 30

It’s that time again!  Come join us for the annual Easter Egg Hunt at Scofield Farms Park on Saturday, March 30 from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm.  We’ll have Easter egg hunts for ages 3 and under, 4-6 and 7 and up as well as food and the Tiny Tails to You petting zoo.  If you plan to participate, please deliver a dozen eggs *per participating child* to Laura Nattinger’s house, 1416 Braided Rope Drive, by Saturday, March 23.  The eggs should be stuffed with individually-wrapped candy and/or small toys.  If possible, please avoid sending golden-colored eggs, since they tend to get confused with the prize golden eggs that we hide for each age group.  We’d also like for parents/grandparents to add a note listing their kids’ ages to the bag of eggs they drop off, so we can better distribute the eggs into the appropriate age groups.  See you there – don’t miss the fun!

Scofield Farms Park Mulch Party – March 23

Come join your fellow neighbors this Saturday, March 23rd from 9:00am to 12:00 noon at Scofield Farms Park.  We will be finishing up spreading the mulch from the mountain of mulch that was given to us prior to It’s My Park Day.  Despite our best efforts a few Saturdays ago, we didn’t have enough hands to complete the project.  Many of you were unable to attend the fun and camaraderie at the last event, so now is your chance to help make our park better and meet some great neighbors in the process.

We will meet at the north end of the park this time at the picnic tables, just off the end of Tamar Lane.  Pitchforks, shovels, and wheelbarrows will be provided, as well as all the water you can drink.

Contact Dan Frasier for additional information.  Hope to see you this Saturday!
