The event kicked off in classic springtime fashion with an Easter egg hunt, as children dashed across the park in search of colorful eggs filled with treats and surprises. The energy was joyful, and laughter filled the air as kids ran from one grassy patch to another.

  1. So payed for the new flower pots, the town, or was that donated

  2. If the village spent $20,000 on flower pots at a timeline this, then you really know doesn’t really sick shit going on. Now, if it was donated, that’s all I’m good. Boy they love spending money.

  3. What is amazing riding through the village CBD today and yet we’re in mid April and is still a lot of leaves and debris under the trestle going around the bend on a curb line, aren’t they sweeping that. Who’s in charge, who is inspecting, I guess no one or they don’t care. Obviously. Another embarrassing moment.
