Happy Easter from Deer Park!
The 2008 Easter Egg Hunt took place on March 22, in the snowiest of conditions in recent memory. But 48 young people attended the event on a dark and dreary day anyhow.
Members present at the March 4-H meeting filled eggs, numbered prize eggs and prizes to give away.
A thank you from North Country 4-H goes to the Lions Club and Senior Center, along with members of the community who donated to make this year's Easter Egg Hunt successful.
More Easter Egg Hunt images are now on North Country's web page.
