🐰 Exciting updates to our Bunny Hop event on Thursday, April 2! 🐣

We've made a few changes to help make the event more enjoyable for everyone:

We are now offering TWO egg hunts!

🌸 Egg Hunt 1: 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Designed for our littlest attendees — ages 1–4, homeschool families, and sensory-sensitive children who do best in smaller, quieter groups.

🌸 Egg Hunt 2: 1:00 – 3:00 PM
Open to the public! We'll also be welcoming Ninilchik Elementary School students during this session.

All activities — Indoor Egg Hunt, Cupcake Walk, Coloring, Raffle Baskets, and the Jelly Bean Guessing Game — are available during BOTH sessions. FREE and open to the community!

A big thank you to American Legion Post #18 for sponsoring this event! 🎉
