Below is an excerpt from this week's edition of The WAVE's Broad Channel Bits Column by Dan Guarino....
If you want to experience the joy of Easter, or anything else for that matter, spend time with Broad Channel’s kids. Last Sunday, April 1, the VFW Hall was filled with delighted children who came for their annual Easter Egg Hunt.
From 1 to 4 p.m. there was laughter, excitement and fun as kids had eggs to color, pictures and crayons to draw with, games to play, franks, juice drinks, cupcakes and goody bags. And yes, there was an Easter egg hunt in the VFW ‘backyard’ with kids organized by age group and with appropriate prizes. Dora the Explorer and Diego even dropped by. Even the weather held out. The high point was the appearance of the Easter Bunny, who arrived to the sounds of swelling music and what sounded like hundreds of bouncing little feet. The special guest stayed and sat for pictures with dozens of children. Said one participant, “Wow! My grandkid’s had a great time!”
A big ‘Thanks’ to the hardworking VFW crew for bringing joy and making everyone an honorary kid for the afternoon.
