It was all Easter Baskets on deck as the City of Bainbridge Leisure Services sponsored their 20th Annual Easter Egg Hunt. The Easter Egg Hunt was held at the Earle May Boat Basin.

The participants were divided up into three age categories and on the go of Diane Atkinson, City of Bainbridge Leisure Services Program Director, everyone was off on the hunt.

The McCulloughs look through their eggs in hopes of finding a winner

It didn't take long for two of the groups but the four to six year olds had a hard time finding their first place prize egg. It was never located and the first place prize for that group was added to the prizes that were drawn for.

Winners were in the 0-3 year age group: 1st place Kenny Barton, 2nd place Jade Tedder and 3rd place Ty Brown. In the 4-6 year olds Josh Robinson found the 2nd place egg and CJ Marshburn the 3rd place egg. Jacmari Bowen found the 1st place egg in the 7-10 year group with Destiny Wynn the 2nd and Spencer Shrives the 3rd.

This year, as in years past, VFW Post 4904 and the Ladies Auxiliary, provided a special prize. Winner of that was Daniel Jones. Post Commander Hill Yates and wife Susan presented Daniel with a basket full of everything 'Easter'.

Brianna and her new best 'bunny'

Little Brianna Cainion was the winner of the big Easter Bunny. The bunny was almost a big as the four year old.

Lots of other prizes were given out for those that had registered for the drawing.
