On a crisp, sunny Saturday morning, families from Ballard gathered at the Ballard Community Center for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. Over a hundred children came with baskets and bunny ears to collect candy and prizes on the large field. A majority of the participants were from Adams Elementary School. Once the hunt began, children raced into the field and excitedly picked up the treats. Donations of canned goods were encouraged by the community center. After the event, snacks and activities were offered inside the center.
