The Easter Bunny hands out treats at the Annual Easter Egg Hunt at the Banksville Community House in Greenwich.

“We put over 1,400 eggs so each child can fill a basket,” said Kristin Galvin, BCH Committee Member and volunteer. “The fenced in playground area is perfect for toddlers and pre-school aged children. We make it a bit more challenging for the older kids. Their eggs are spread all over the ball field so it becomes more of a race to get the most eggs.”
The children readily empty their eggs after the hunt to recycle them for next year’s event.
