The OG Sandbox crew put together their annual Easter Egg Hunt party last Saturday at the historical Mountain View Park.
Kids were welcome to participate in gathering as many of those colorful plastic eggs on the park lawn or behind the trees as they could seek, find, and enjoy. The Easter eggs were loaded with sweet treats and some very special golden eggs stashed with cash. The kids and their parents were also treated to a BBQ lunch, games, and prizes.
“I think things went well today. The kids seemed like they truly enjoyed themselves. Man, I haven’t gotten this many thank yous from kids in I don’t know how long,” OG President Aaron Gibson shared. “Like the kids, the parents were also very appreciative to us for putting this together. That was very encouraging to hear.”
The OG crew and their friends put plenty of big smiles on the little faces of the Happy Easter celebrators.
“It was hard work putting all this together with a limited staff, but it was worth it and it was fun. You know how we do. Anything we can do to help our community, that’s us,” OG VP Darnell Meals shared.
