The Manchester Mens Club held their Annual Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday in Carr Park. Kids scrambled and in a matter of minutes found thousands of hand-dyed hard-boiled eggs.

Two Hundred and ten dozen eggs waited in Carr Park as the wind picked up and a chilly rain fell. Families arrived nearer to the 1 pm start time then usual. By the time the 2-3 year olds were released to grab as many of the rainbow of eggs as their little hands could hold, the park had filled almost as many kids as years with nicer weather. Forty seconds later the last group of children, 3rd-4th, were given to go. Minutes later all 210 dozen eggs were cleared from the field.  Grey skies and damp weather didn’t dampen the kids’ enthusiasm for this annual tradition!

Thanks to the Mens Club for their dedication to the community.
