UPDATE 4/20, 10:55 AM - According to the Hope Church:
Parents and Guardians,

Sorry for the change, but we will postpone until 4PM today

We will still meet at (Firefighters field) at 4PM

Hope to see everyone there.

Get out those rain boots! It will be a messy (and memorable) egg hunt!
UPDATE 7:20 PM - After a few hours delay due to the rain earlier this morning the Roosevelt Island Egg Hunt took place with approximately 500 families taking part.

Here are some scenes.



After the rush to pick up as many eggs as possible, I witnessed a very nice act of kindness by one young Roosevelt Islander. A boy named Matthew learned that a friend was upset because she was not able to get many eggs. Matthew took some of the eggs in his basket and slipped them into his friend's basket - Well done Matthew!
