Neither the cold temperatures nor the aftereffects of the Nor’easter kept away local children and their families from the Village of Islandia’s 13th Annual Easter Egg Hunt, which took place on the grounds of Village Hall on March 24. Children had the opportunity to color their own Easter eggs, get their picture taken with the Easter bunny and guess the number of jellybeans in the jar.
Each child also received a basket full of Easter eggs which contained pieces of candy; some of them also had tickets which they could redeem for a special prize. Those in attendance were treated to cookies and hot cocoa and entertained by the music of “Joe the Singing Bus Driver.”
