Easter egg hunt held in Leachville

The Adams Estate was the setting on Saturday for the second annual Easter Egg hunt. The weather was chilly and windy but over 300 children of all ages enjoyed finding the 4,000 eggs.

The children were divided into four age groups with plenty of eggs for everyone.

Myrna Adams and Tina Adams Nomland served as hostesses for the event welcoming the children with refreshments, balloons, and prize eggs.

The First Baptist and Methodist youth helped with the event. Joining in the festivities was the Southern Bank Relay for Life team. The Relay for Life team set up games for the children with all proceeds going to the Buffalo Island Relay for Life.

"We appreciate Mrs. Adams for allowing us to join in the Easter egg hunt," Amber McCoy with Southern Bank said.

"It is fun to see the kids have such a good time," Mrs. Adams said. "We enjoy having them."

Children enjoyed visiting and having their picture made with the Easter Bunny.
