Easter Egg Hunt

The Auburn Noon Lions holds its annual Easter egg hunt on April 8, starting at 1 p.m. at Les Gove Park.

The hunt is open to all children up to 12 years of age, including special-needs kids, divided into four age groups. There will be several prizes scattered among the eggs, and the Easter Bunny will put in a special appearance, according to Monty Moore, president of the Auburn Noon Lions Easter Egg Hunt. There is no cost to participate.
