About 2,000 colorful plastic eggs were scattered across the lawn of VanderLey Park on Saturday morning for the annual egg hunt in the town of Oakland. Community events coordinator Val Gibbons announced the start of the hunt at noon, and by 12:02 p.m., all the eggs had been picked up by the dozens of children hoping for the golden egg.
Other events for children included a rock-painting station, pony rides, inflatables and a visit with the Easter Bunny. The Good Times Jazz Band provided lively music during the festivities.
