Newton Falls Community Easter Egg Hunt

2080

Newton Falls – Despite the very cold weather in the week preceding, Saturday, March 23, was a great day for the 60th Newton Falls  Community Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by the  Girl Scouts.    A cool, but sunny day made the crowd a little less than previous years but gave those attending a bigger haul of prizes.  Over 7000 eggs were stuffed with candy and prizes for the kids to gather.  Big Top the Clown, the Easter Bunny, and Shelly the Good Egg entertained the kids with balloon animals, high-fives, and pictures.  Again, it was a joy to see at least one of Janice Dietelbach’s original junior high girl scouts who started this service project attend bringing a grandchild (or maybe a great-grandchild) to gather eggs.

The Grand Prize winners were:  Jersei Stump, daughter of Samantha and Bill Stumpf of Niles, in the 2-year-old category: Georgie Phillips, son of George and Karen Phillips of NF, in the 3-4year old category: Justin Meeks, son of Samantha Meeks of NF, in the 5-7 year old category: and Sydney McColloch, daughter of James and Dawn McColloch of  Streetsboro, in the 8-10 year old category.
